“APBA Dice”

with apologies to Lady Gaga. 

(Mum mum mum mah
Mum mum mum mah)

I wanna hold my APBA cards like they do in Lancaster  please
Pick up the dice, hit sixty-six, dude stay with me (I love it)
Luck and intuition, make sure Pujols is in there to  start
And after him, someone good to protect him, he’ll play his part

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
The dice are hot, show them what I’ve got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
The dice are hot, show them what I’ve got

Can’t read my,
Can’t read my
No he can’t read my APBA dice
(of course it’s a sixty-six)
Can’t read my
Can’t read my
No they can’t read my APBA dice
(of course it’s a sixty-six)

AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)
AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)

I wanna roll with them a sixty-six, boxcars it will be
A little APBA is fun when you’re with me
APBA baseball is not the same without a good arm
And baby it wouldn’t hurt to roll an 11-1
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I’ll get the dice hot, show them what I’ve got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got

AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)
AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)

I won’t tell you that I’ve won or lost
Mock or taunt you Cause I’m not bluffin’ with my red and whites
I’m not lying I’m just rollin’ by bones
Just like a dude across the table asking you to
Take your crying towel out before I before it’s done
I promise this, promise this
Check this roll out cause I rolled another sixty-six

AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)
AP-AP-AP-APBA dice, AP-AP-APBA dice
(Mum mum mum mah)

 


I was inspired this morning. I guess.  LOL

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as a frequent participant of the Chicagoland APBA Tournament. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.

  1. I have heard a parody analysis of Adam Dunn’s stellar (!!!) 2011 season for the White Sox. But I can’t find it anywhere using search engines.

    It is set to the tune of “Fun, Fun, Fun” by the Beach Boys and begins:

    “Well he got a big deal and he cruised to all the hamburger stands now. He forgot all about conditioning. he looks like a FAN now.”

    I will continue to look. It’s bound to pop up soon.

    BTW: Who is Lady Gaga?
