1998
The year is 1998,
And we all look forward to wiping the slate.
We all need to get wiser very fast,
That's why we look to Christmas Eve's of past.
In 97 things went all wrong,
That is why I decided to write this song.
Our good friend Ambrose brought Pelan this was bad,
From what Jungle Jim said he is the one who made him mad.
Let's talk about Jim with his jolly hooves and his toys,
He's not here cause he was a little to jolly with the young boys.
Let's hope Mike Croteau wasn't a victim of belly bouncing,
We'll never forget the day at Parker Drive he gave Gaffney a pouncing.
The Little Sap, the pesky one, he makes men quiver,
To the young ladies he's the hottest lover in Fall River.
He is Dave Cabral and his wallet may be tight,
Pelan's not here so let's hope there's no fight.
Matty Michaud a tremendously hard worker who's as sharp as a clock,
He is also the greatest athelete never to wear a jock,
But look around the room, who should be a pro athelete?,
His mouth is probably filled with sausage, pork chops and chourico.
He is a great friend we joke with a lot,
Paulo your ankles are completely shot.
We had the league title in out hands,
Mauro couldn't move his man the length of this can.
We all know Ambrose committed that foul,
You made Norm go off in a howl.
He came out looking like Icabod Crane,
He treated little Norm like he was on the end of a chain.
We appreciate the de Silva's hospitality, it's been fun and real fine,
Norm, if there's no pool we won't be back in 99.

2000
Thanks for coming we are glad you are here,
Now i am ready to spread some holiday cheer.
Everyone relax for a few, grap a beer and a seat,
We're going to talk about Lenny taking a 24 footer that only went 23 feet.
Now let's talk about the many days we've had together,
I think we all agree Ed Demello would look much better in leather.
So we've enjoyed dinner and we're glad it wasn't sushi,
NC's upstairs searching the net for ms. Kristi Yamagucci.
Over the past year many words were spoken and many good deeds we saw,
The most profound came from Norm de Silva, "YOU DON'T BREAK THE LAW!"
Mike Croteau is married and happy as can be,
Debbie is wondering when Ambrose is going to get down on 1 knee.
Rick Jalbert so eloquently put Ambrose in his place,
When he told him "Don't tell me to shut up" to his face.
We all saw Billy Kav guzzle that 16oz. Bud can,
No one will deny that Lenny is a mountain of a man.
We all knew Lenny would go very far,
For all intents and purposes he is now a Phys. Ed. teacher with a car.
The Lakers under Jimmy have just started their season,
Who would have thought Curtis Gonsalves would end up being the voice of reason.
He addresses his team like Lombardi, Auerbach, Gaspar, Rockne; all the best,
Except the question he asked was one right out of the coo coo's nest.
5 & 2, 5 & 2, 5 & 2, he pouted and begs,
All he wanted was 5 guys with 2 balls between their legs.
So as we all get older and we all have our fears,
Norm for example moved from a B to a C cup in less than a year.
Norm I'm sorry that was a bit hard,
I hope you don't go out aimlessly and start doing laps around the yard.
Mike had a busy year so we did not see him much at Norm's place,
The last image we have is him holding Tavarse's hand in the driveway in a gentle embrace.
Good thing Tavarse is not here the mood would be sour,
He is probably just down at Horseneck Beach just taking a shower.
Paulo we love you but when you leave where do you go?,
I hope your name does not become synonomis with a man named Robidoux.
Brenda the dessert made me feel like I was dreaming,
If I hear one more person go "Ooohhhhhhh!" I will definetly be leaving.
I'm glad that Roger and Gayla have both showed up,
If your daughter is 18 can you please hook me up?
I'm glad to see Norm's cousin Eric is getting tanked,
This year Dartmouth beat New Bedford, in fact they got spanked!
Steve Blanchette a good man who you never hear pout,
Norm was offended when he asked him "do you work out?"
In 2001 we hope there is positive change for one and all,
Jose can start by getting rid of that beach baskteball.
From the Mountain of a man, The Little Sap, and the Cabana Boy,
To Rick the Pimp, Pablo, Smittens, and even Brednoy,
We all have had our moments and for sure there will be more,
If Roger won't set me up with his daughter, how about El Vira from the store?
So in closing i would ask,
If we could all raise a glass.
To everyone a wonderful Christmas, I'll say,
Let's do it all over again one year from today.
