about

Parody of "Red Rubber Ball" by The Cyrkle

lyrics

I should've known you couldn’t say farewell; 
The lesson to be learned from this, you didn’t learn it well.
 Don’t you know she’s not the only starfish in the sea;
And whenever I hear her name, it’s chalkboard nails to me. 

And I know it's gonna go all wrong;  
Yeah, I do recall this song; 
You’re bouncin' back to her just like a dazed tennis ball. 

She never cared for who you became; 
To her you were an ornament, somethin' for her game. 
Always bitching, never list’ning, to your point of view. 
Pretension and pure arrogance were all she gave to you. 

And I know it's gonna go all wrong;
 Yeah, I do recall this song; 
You’re bouncin' back to her just like a dazed tennis ball. 

That story's in the past, no need for the re-run;
 You’ve got your life to live, without that crazy one. 
That rollercoaster ride, it nearly made you puke your guts;
 If you think that it’s different now, you really have gone nuts. 

And I know it's gonna go all wrong;  
Yeah, I do recall this song; 
You’re bouncin' back to her just like a dazed tennis ball. 

I know it's gonna go all wrong;  
Yeah, I do recall this song; 
You’re bouncin' back to her just like a dazed tennis ball.

A great eclectic collection that still feels whole. Leslie Hudson is one of the best singers in the nerd and fannish music scene, as she proves here. Karl-Johan Norén
