The Lyrics

Someday, Jeremy Bonderman might lead the Detroit Tigers to glory. That day is not coming soon.
Each time I leave the bullpen, it almost breaks my heart.
'Cause I am so afraid, I'll lose another start.
Each night I ask the stars up in space,
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"

Warmups, I feel so happy, on mound I feel so sad.
I guess I have to learn, this team's really bad.
Each night I ask the stars up in space,
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"

I cried a tear, for Tiger fans.
I can't stop other teams from kicking Detroit cans.

Well, if they want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do.
And if I make home runs fly, I'll still try to pitch for you.
Each night I ask the stars up in space,
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"

I cried a tear, for Tiger fans.
I can't stop other teams from kicking Detroit cans.

Well, if they want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do.
And if I make home runs fly, I'll still try to pitch for you.
Each night I ask the stars up in space,
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"
"Why must I be a teenage pitching ace?"
(repeat 'til fade)

I've tried to see what other of your songs might be baseball ones - I just wanted to read those. this was good - and more fun to read now that - if I recall - he was on the team in 2006 when they won the pennant. Probably wont' read any more now, but good job on your baseball ones that I saw.
