There's Always Next Year - Sports Fan's Lament

Verse
The life of a sports fan is filled with pleasure and pain
Wins bring jubilation, losses bring shame
We can't win 'em all but we hope to win most
When all hope seems lost, just remember this toast.

Chorus
There's always next year, there's always next year
We won't get discouraged unless we run out of beer
It may take a season to find a reason to cheer
If it takes longer, there's always next year
If it takes longer, there's always next year

Verse
Sometimes the team can't do anything wrong
Winning comes easy and emotions are strong
Then something happens and it all falls apart
So we wait til next year when a new season starts

Chorus
There's always next year, there's always next year
We won't get discouraged unless we run out of beer
It may take a season to find a reason to cheer
If it takes longer, there's always next year
If it takes longer, there's always next year

Verse
Our stars shine bright 'til the team starts to fade
Close only counts when you throw hand grenades
There's no rhyme or reason but one thing is clear
If they don't win this season, there's always next year

Chorus
There's always next year, there's always next year
We won't get discouraged unless we run out of beer
It may take a season to find a reason to cheer
If it takes longer, there's always next year
If it takes longer, there's always next year

See You Next Year....
