Smash Cast - The National Pastime Lyrics

Marilyn:
Fellas

Team:
Yeah?

Marilyn:
Fellas

Team:
Is it?

Marilyn:
Hey team!

Team:
Hold the benches it’s Marilyn!

Marilyn:
I just got a date

Team:
She just got a date

Marilyn:
With Baseball’s Chilton Chate

Team:
The lucky so and so

Marilyn:
So run me through the bases
Put me through my paces
And teach me all the things a slugger’s lover to know
What’s that there?

Team:
That’s the pitchers mound

Marilyn:
Have you ever seen a shape that is so perfectly round?

Team:
Batter up,
Play ball
You better give it your all, cuz’ all men like to play at

Marilyn:
The national pastime
Who’s that there?

Team:
That’s the first base coach

Marilyn:
Have you noticed that he signals every time I approach?

Team:
kill me out

Marilyn:
Throw him out

Team:
Because there isn’t a doubt that

All:
All men like to play at

Marilyn:
The national pastime
When I was just a little girl
I liked being dainty and pearly
But now that I’ve given sports a whirl,
I finally kind of like to get dirty

Team:
Baby what’s that there?

Marilyn:
That’s the team bull pen
Kind of like the odds I’m seeing, no girls I’m there

Team:
Hit the deck look alive before the ladies run dry

Marilyn:
Because my skills and my passion will elevate the national…

Peanuts!
Hot dogs!
Cracker Jack!
I don’t care I don’t care if I ever get back!

Team:
When the seasons over,
The play won’t end

Marilyn:
Cuz’ a baseball diamond is a girl’s best friend

Team:
Yes her style and her fashion will elevate the national pastime
