Colin Campbell is here,
The rink is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
and no-one's quite certain whose game it is.
How long ago, how long?
If only we had listened then.
If we'd known just how right we were going to be.
For he dreamed a lot
And he schemed a lot
A Stanley Cup for his son before the game fell apart.
If the NHL was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show,
Who'll be the next clown
To screw the Habs down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the playoffs end.
Well, what’s in your e-mails today?
And who are those divers you say?
You're acting a part which you knew from the start
was a dishonest one.
Well how do you plead?
A fixer indeed!
Go re-learn your lines,
You don't know what you've done.
What hockey’s become.
If the NHL was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show,
Who'll be the next clown
To screw the Habs down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the playoffs end.
I logged on to HIO, thinkin' about a short season that was dead
Just needed to find a place where I could clear my head
I posted "Hey, Habfan, we need some Dmen that are taller by a head."
He just laughed and posted back, "Yup", was all he said
Take a load off DD
Take those bucks for free
Take a load off Colby
And you put the load right on Mikey
(You put the load right on Mikey)
I scrolled down the page, and I was lookin' for word on some UFA
When I saw HabinBurly posting, saying help is on the way
And I said, "Hey Burly this is takin’ way too long"
And he typed back, "We gotta let it go, but how about another song?"
So take a load off Markov
Time to rest that knee
Take a load off PK
And get a load of Tinordi
(Yeah- get a load of Tinordi)
Go on, HardHabits, there ain't nothin' new you can say
We all agree and we’re waiting on that day.
"Well, now JF, my friend, what about Chrisadiens?"
She said, "Do me a favor, Cal, won't you stay an' keep Bellyful company?"
Take a load off Carey
You need a D or three
Take a load off Budaj
And you put the load right on Bergie
(You put the load right on Bergie)
Crazy nuna followed me and he caught me in a fog
He said, "Told ya the Habs are crap; they are a beaten dog"
I said, "Wait a minute, nuna, you know I'm a peaceful man"
But Timo said, “It’s all the fault of Therrien.”
Take a load off Pleky
A trade is what I see
Take a load off Larry
And you put the load right on Chucky
(You put the load right on Chucky)
Catch a song by L Elle, and sing it line by line
Bripro is singin’ low and punkster is singing high
Kooch, Hobie and UCE, are in the chorus line
and Ian’s waitin’ here, waitin’ again for Hab Hockey Time
Take a load off Gally
You’re small but look big to me
Take a load off Raffi
And you put the load right on Geoffrey
(You put the load right on Geoffrey)
Hello,
Is there anybody out there?
Reply if you can read me
Is there anyone at HIO?
Come on now
I know they’re being beaten down
I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts
There is no pain,
Habs are receding
That distant Cup is smoke on the horizon
New Habs are coming up in waves
Your hands type but I can't read what you're saying
When I was a child I got Habs fever
My illness is like a punctured balloon
Now that feeling is growing once again
I can't explain, you have to understand
I am a Habs fan
I have become comfortably numb
I have become comfortably numb
O.K.
Just another Sen prick
There'll be no more aaaaaaaah!
But I do feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe they’re trying, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.
There is no pain, Habs are receding
That distant Cup is smoke on the horizon
New Habs are coming up in waves
Your hands type but I can't read what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but the Cup was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
And I have become
Comfortably numb.
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they skate like geese on a lake, see my bug eye.
I'm coaching.
Shitting on my cornflakes, waiting for the bus to come;
Senatorial tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday.
Man, I’ve been a naughty boy, I see your face grow long.
I am the coach man, they are my coached men.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.
Mister Mounty Policeman singing
Game excitement starting to grow.
See how it starts, but I’ve got the farts, see how I run.
I'm dying, I'm dying.
I'm dying, I'm dying.
Yellow matter custard, dripping from my one good eye.
Terribly fickle fan base, monomaniacal leaflets,
Boy, you been a flirty girl you let your chastity down.
I am the coach man, they are my coached men.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.
Sitting in a Senate chamber waiting for the sun.
If the goals don't come, we’ll get a tan
From feeling that Habitual pain.
I am the poach man, they are the poached men.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.
Expert flexpert stroking egos,
Don't you know the jokers laugh at you?
See how they file like pigs for a mile,
See how they pile?
I'm dying.
Goal stealing filcher, blocking up that big net.
Crosby leading penguin singing Janis Joplin.
Man, you should have seen them stamping Evgeni Nabokov.
I am the coach man, they are the coached men.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob g'goo...

Rising with the morning sun
we turn to greet the dawn,
Knowing we get to play another day.
Hopeless year behind us,
Just a memory of pain,
Our Habs have always
been a cross to bear.
Lord we know the Cup shine,
And we know no pain no gain
Teardrops wash those sins away.
We'll try hard to remember
Those wins will come again,
Habs, ain't gonna cry no more today.
All around them shadows fall,
Playoffs have has just begun,
Habs realize they’re on their own again.
Memories of broken dreams,
As distant as one spin around the sun,
Are drifting like an echo
in the wind.
Lord, we know the sunshine,
And we feel the gears of pain
Cranking up to wash old
games away.
We’ll try hard to remember
So we won't be fooled
again,
Habs, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
Habs, I thought about it,
But, it just ain't done no
good,
You hold my heart and
soul within your hand.
All the time, you're in my
mind,
I never thought my love
could be so blind,
But that’s my lot,
I am a fan.
Lord, we know the sunshine,
And we feel the gears of pain
Cranking up to wash old
games away.
We'll try hard to remember
Those wins will come again,
Habs, ain't gonna cry no more today.
Hey, Habs you drive us
crazy,
You know our
hearts’ desire,
We’re waiting for Stanley
to come back this way.
You've given us joy,
We’ve given you love,
Now tell me what you
were thinking of,
How'd you go and steal
our souls away?
Lord, we know the sunshine,
And we feel the gears of pain
Cranking up to wash old
games away.
We’ll try hard to remember
So we won't be fooled
again,
Habs, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
They ain't gonna cry no
more.
(Solo)
Lord, we know the sunshine,
And we feel the gears of pain
Cranking up to wash old
games away.
We’ll try hard to remember
So we won't be fooled
again,
Habs, ain't gonna cry no
more today…
You do hit Grabovski
Carlyle just simply mystifies me
Small me, wherefore Joffrey?
Orr and Fraser meet Jared Tinordi
Let me Febreeze your smell
Do do that poopoo that Laffs do so well
When you do nothing to me
That’s what Laff hockey can do
Let me Febreeze your smell
Do do that poopoo that Laffs do so well
‘Cause you do nothing to me
That’s what Laff hockey can do
That’s what Laff hockey can do
All the gear is packed
We’re ready to go
We’re standin' here outside the MTS door
We hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the night is shakin'
It's early morn
The bus is waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already we’re so happy
I can’t lie
So be a fan and smile for us
Tell us that you'll meet that bus
Buy those tickets and never let ‘em go
Cause we’re leavin' from that Jet plain
We know when we’ll be back again
On Tuesday, Habs start at home
There's so many times we've let you down
So many times we’ve played around
I tell you now, those games don't mean a thing
Ev'ry shot I shoot, I'll think of you
Ev'ry player I hit, I'll hit for you
When we come back, we’ll wear those champion rings
So be a fan and smile for us
Tell us that you'll meet that bus
Buy those tickets and never let ‘em go
Cause we’re leavin' from that Jet plain
We know when we’ll be back again
On Tuesday, Habs start at home
Now the time has come for Toronto
One more game
Let us beat them
Then we’ll close our eyes
And be on our way
Dream about playoffs to come
Where it’s win or lose and I want some
About those games, I won't have to say
So be a fan and smile for us
Tell us that you'll meet that bus
Buy those tickets and never let ‘em go
Cause we’re leavin' from that Jet plain
We know when we’ll be back again
On Tuesday, Habs start at home
And we’re leavin' from that Jet plain
We know when we’ll be back again
On Tuesday, Habs start at home
I read HIO today, oh boy
About the unlucky man who began to fade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
Having seen the stats graph
He blew the game of that I’m sure
He didn't notice those red lights had flared
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen that mask before
Nobody was really sure if he was playing really poor
I saw a film today, oh boy
The Habs again had just won the Cup
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look, having read the book
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, got out of bed
Dragged a puck across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank out of the Cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my gear and grabbed my hat
Made the team bus in seconds flat
Found a newspaper that said we choke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Ahh, ahh, ahh
I read the sports today, oh boy
Four thousand holes in the Habs defense
And though the D was rather small
They had to size them yet
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the net!
I'd love to turn you on
If only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, maybe (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
If only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, maybe (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
Habs might have to trade forwards and Dmen
To prove it to you, baby (Baby)
So we're losing now
And you feel no power
And I feel no power
Then there's really nothing we can't do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If the Habs wanted to, baby
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist with no stars
It'd be so easy
Now, baby
All we gotta do (Baby, baby, baby, oh, baby)
Is get a little faith in you (Baby, baby)
Oh, I've been so many places
I've seen some rinks (Yes, I have)
Being a fan is the answer (Yes, it is)
Keeps holding this team together, yeah
Ain't nothing better
Ain't nothing better (Nothing's better)
And all the answers are our players
Hell, it's the same everywheres, baby (Just the same now)
Nothing ever breaks like our hearts (Love's a game now)
Only fears give you away (Ain't it a shame now?)
Then you're right where I found ya (Oh, Stanley)
With my arms around ya (Oh, baby)
O-o-o-o-o-o-oh, baby
Baby, baby
Love is a magic word, ooh, yeah (Baby)
Few ever find in a lifetime
But from that very first look at your crest
I knew you and I had but one heart (Baby)
Only our bodies were apart (It's making me crazy)
That was so easy (Baby)
So easy (Oh, baby)
I had a taste of the real world (Didn't waste a drop of it)
When we went down the tubes (On top of it)
Oh, if only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
If only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
I can hear whistles and ovations
Whenever I’m watching you (Never say never)
I feel like swirling and dancin'
Whenever you're scoring for me (Whenever you're skating with me)
The ice ripples like a river when that puck’s on net (Let me touch you)
When I skate on your body with some zing (Show you what I mean)
When the puck starts landin' inside ya (Oh, baby)
You make me wanna sing (I love you so)
Yeah (I love you so)
Baby (I love you so)
Baby (I love you so)
Baby (I love you so)
Baby (Oh)
Oh, yeah (Oh, yeah)
All right (All right)
Baby, we're sure doin' it tonight (Baby, we're sure doin' it)
Every time they come by, let ‘em try (Come on by)
Pretty please with sugar on it
That's how I like it, ooh
I can't even believe it this year
It's like having every dream I ever wanted come clear (Dream of a lifetime)
I picked up Hab vibes
You know, it opened my eyes (Dream of a lifetime)
But I'm still dreamin', yeah (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, oh)
And you're right where I found ya (Oh, baby)
With my arms around ya (Oh, baby)
Oh, if only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
If only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)
We'd get by
If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
So would I
So would I
Oh, if only you believe like I believe, baby (If only you believe like I believe)

If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)

If only you believe in miracles, baby (If only you believe in miracles)
So would I
