The Twelve Days of Mets-mas

On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve Tom Veryzers,
Eleven Pignatanos,
Ten Loopers Looping,
Nine Leiters landing,
Eight Maids McEwing,
Seven Swans a-pitching,
Six Geese a-Gozzo,
Five Ro-yce Rings,
Four Paul Byrds,
Three Bob Friends,
Two Tony Clarks,
And a Piersall in a Spehr tree!

I presume you're familiar with Terry Cashman's "Baseball and the Mets." I bought the 45 rpm (or maybe it was a 33) in Cooperstown in 1982 for $2.

This rivals that for most clever Mets-related lyrics.

As someone who loves holiday song parodies, this gets a big-time thumbs up.
