3/19/10 - Steve Bryant

This is a funny guy. Well, baseball season is right around the corner and Los Angeles is about to go crazy for Mannywood again. Well, last year, Manny took on a new persona as one of the the few, the shamed, the pregnant, the dope users with the likes of Mark McGuire and A-Rod. I did a song about Manny being pregnant (one of my first) while Steve Bryant takes the drug use route.
This song is called "Manny" and is a parody of Barry Manilow's "Mandy". Seems pretty straight forward. By this point, Manny should have a 3 month old keeping him up at night while he breastfeeds. I wonder if he checks the baby in as carry on or under the plane luggage on road trips.
Again, "Manny" by Steve Bryant. Enjoy:

Lyrics
I remember every game,
You’d forget just why you came.
Falling as you run,
Stumbling ‘round the bases.
Not running out ground balls,
And other disgraces.

Everyone knows you can play,
You had problems everyday.
Fighting with your team, a pain in the fanny
Everyone said, it’s Manny being Manny

Oh Manny,
I wonder what drugs you were takin’?
Now they sent you away.
Oh Manny
All the money that you won’t be makin’
A third of your pay.
Oh, Manny.

Looks like you’ve run out of time.
Your legacy has turned to slime
All of your homers
A drug fueled facade,
Your fans are heartbroken,
You’re just like A-Rod

Oh Manny,
Well, you took PEDs without sayin'
Now they' sent you away, Oh Manny.
2 months before you can start playin’,
You’ve become a cliché. Oh Manny

Looks like they got you.
And they got you good.
Were you taking those drugs,
To restart your manhood?

Oh Manny,
I wonder what drugs you were takin’?
Now they sent you away.
Oh Manny
All the money that you won’t be makin’
A third of your pay.
Oh, Manny.

Oh Manny,
Well, you took PEDs without sayin'
Now they sent you away, Oh Manny.
2 months before you can start playin’,
You’re a cliché.
