The Lyrics
Florida had Marlins, and so are these in Tampa Bay.
To the beats, beats, beats of the bass drum
As the sun in Florida falls
To the tick, tick, tock of the digital clock
With our backs against the wall
But the ball did drop when my team flopped
And the summer show is through
And the fans in Tampa keep repeating
Boo, Boo, Boo...
Devil Rays, you are the one
Only Lou can manage too
In the Tampa Bay sun
Whether in my house or car
It's no matter, darling, where we are
I'll have to boo, the Devil Rays
Devil Rays, Why did you blow?
'Cause this team they're losing gave you Jose Canseco
Wherever I go, when the bats can't hear the boom
In my sports poster-filled light bedroom
I have to boo, the Devil Rays
Devil Rays, Last place is all I see
Next year can be a playoff yearning inside of me
And the torment will be through,
'Til we finally hear the cheers instead of the boos
Tampa Bay Devil Rays
As the sun in Florida falls
To the tick, tick, tock of the digital clock
With our backs against the wall
But the ball did drop when my team flopped
And the summer show is through
And the fans in Tampa keep repeating
Boo, Boo, Boo...
Devil Rays, you are the one
Only Lou can manage too
In the Tampa Bay sun
Whether in my house or car
It's no matter, darling, where we are
I'll have to boo, the Devil Rays
Devil Rays, Why did you blow?
'Cause this team they're losing gave you Jose Canseco
Wherever I go, when the bats can't hear the boom
In my sports poster-filled light bedroom
I have to boo, the Devil Rays
Devil Rays, Last place is all I see
Next year can be a playoff yearning inside of me
And the torment will be through,
'Til we finally hear the cheers instead of the boos
Tampa Bay Devil Rays

I went to a Devil Rays game once, and this was a good parody.
