Bud Thought About Drugs *
Sung to the tune "I Thought About You"

For many a year
We thought about drugs.
Me and Don Fehr
Thought a lot about drugs.

Should our baseball stars all be behind bars?
Ev'ry damn team?
Who shone the light on, who was so right on
That it wasn't caffeine?
Is Bush that mean?

You know those pats on the can?
That's because of the drugs.
They're to show who's your man
And deserves more than hugs.

Why can't Congressmen "ask" if they want to bask
In each baseballer's dream?
They must know by now that it's more than just how
To be broad in the beam.
It's to get with the team.

If they look at TV, they're gonna see
Why it only took one, maybe two,
For our millionaire lugs
To see what Cialis could do.
