Gloomy Thursday
(for Shane Reynolds)

to the tune of Gloomy Sunday

Thursday is gloomy, I got my release today
Gerry and Jimy think I can no longer play
They know that my back has been healed and is stronger now
But they tell me they can't keep me here any longer now
I thought I'd be starting, but now they're releasing me
They say that they just didn't see what they want to see
Gloomy Thursday

Thursday is gloomy the clubhouse in disbelief
My former teammates expressing their shock and grief
Nobody told me I still had to make the team
I would've thought that they held me in more esteem
I worked on mechanics and not getting batters out
Turns out that outs were the one thing they cared about
Gloomy Thursday
