Lyrics:

(Hook)
I love sports
I love rootin'
Sometimes I get upset when my team's losin'

(Verse)
Man I love sports I'd die for my team
Every time they play I'm always glued to the screen
If my team wins I'll applaud their greatness
But if they lose I'll just go drink in my basement
Last week my favorite team lost by a goal
So I went to drive my car into a telephone pole
My wife tried to stop me said "think of our kids"
But I was too mad 'bout what those grown men did

(Hook)

(Bridge)
My dad gets upset when his sports team loses
The wall is full of holes and his knuckles got bruises
Oh no, we gotta go to the ER
But Dad's too drunk to drive his car

Now Mom says he's gotta sleep on the couch
But that won't be a problem cuz he's about to pass out

(Bridge cont)
I live and I die with every game winning drive
Lord keep my family safe from me tonight

(Hook)

(Outro)
My Dad needs a new TV again
He broke the screen when they lost by 10

I'm Ben, I'm a standup comedian and musician and I've long blended musical comedy into my live stand-up act.  

I lead two musical comedy projects, Garden Fresh Beats and Thanksgiving Dinner.  Both take a group approach to comedic songwriting, with the latter, Thanksgiving Dinner,  having become an annual tradition of over 20 years.   I juxtapose playful, silly themes and music with dark or absurd overtones.  Frequently irreverent, subtly satirical, and sometimes clever, the music is meant to be catchy, fun and a little subversive.  Think Bo Burnham, Jon Lajoie, Flight of The Concords, Lonely Island, etc.

This Soundcloud contains a mix of my various projects, as well as a few of my own personal songs and instrumentals, which are not always meant to be funny.  Welcome my canvas, I hope you enjoy.
