Being a Mets fan is a real test of faith
A gentle, nondenominational prayer headed into this weekend’s Mets-Phillies series...
Please give us fans the strength to keep things in perspective.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
Our beloved team is in first place, and we’re all in smiles.
Yet some are very nervous as they travel down the Jersey Turnpike.
It’s just 90 miles to play three baseball games.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
Some put too much into these games.
Hoping this series purges all the stain of 2009.
But for all our memories of last season.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
And for all those injuries, botched plays, and losses.
We forget how our team was in first place.
40 games into the 2009 season.
When it was May, before the wheels came off.
And all our players dropped one by one.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
For now most of our team has avoided serious injury or assorted boo-boos.
And our team’s name is spelled M-E-T-S, not M*A*S*H.
And we’re playing well again, so we hope it continues.
But we all know what really counts is where we are after all 162.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
Let’s take a deep breath and keep things in perspective.
Right now there’s still 140 games more to go.
So let’s just see what happens.
A season is very long.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
Go Mets go, kick some Phillies butt, and turn ‘em into pretzels.
But no matter what happens this weekend.
We’re still with our team, win or lose, bumps, bruises, errors and all.
Just do your best, keep healthy and sluggin’ towards October.
It’s just one series, as April becomes May.
