Frontiers of Freedom: Tufts: “PED Heroes”

Bob Tufts is also a member of the “We Are the Keep Baseball Exactly the Same Way I Remember it, You Rat Basstards, Village Greenfields Preservation Society”

With apologies to Ray Davies, the Kinks and “Celluloid Heroes”

Everybody’s a doper, now everybody’s a star
And everybody’s going deep, it doesn’t matter who they are
There are home runs in every city
Over fences out onto streets
And if you read George Mitchell’s full report
Their names are in its sheets

Don’t yell at Mark McGwire as you drive on past his gate
He looks so weak and fragile without andro and HgH
He became a baseball savior
Placed with Sosa on a throne
But he brain locked before Congress
And he’s now forced to be alone

You can see all the stars as you walk down BALCO Boulevard
Some that you recognize, some that you’ve hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who injected in vain

Thanks to Davidoff.
