My friend William Tasker started it (via a conversation with Dathan), so blame him. He knew what he was getting you into. And best to Mr. Descalso–I do hope he lands in a good situation.
Daniel (to the tune of Elton John’s “Daniel”, of course)
Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red ball cap with so many tear stains
Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
Sure does look like Daniel won’t be having Cardinal ties
It never was pretty though at times it was clutch
Well Daniel says if only Mike didn’t play him so much
Oh and he should know, he was out there enough
Oh he’ll miss Daniel, oh he’ll miss him so much
Daniel the scrapper, you are younger than me
Do you still feel the high of that Game number 5?
Your time has died, but you’ve seen more than I
Daniel, you’re no star but a great clubhouse guy
Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red ball cap with so many tear stains
Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
Sure does look like Daniel won’t be having Cardinal ties
Oh it looks like Daniel won’t be having Cardinal ties
Okay, you just ruined one of my favorite Elton John songs.
Good luck to him, just so glad he isn’t on my team anymore.
