‘Twas a battle in Seattle
But the stars were not aligned
They got crossed so, Niners lost oh
I am sad, and so I rhyme.

At first Colin, he was ballin’
As he launched the quest for six
Then we lost it, when he tossed it
He misthrew and he got picked.

Season’s over, time for closure
There’s just one more task at hand
That’s for Peyton to drive a stake in
To the heart of the 12th man.

My entreaty may seem greedy
But his arrogance abounds
Squash his swagger, teach him manners
Please take Ricky Sherman down

‘Twas a battle in Seattle
But the stars were not aligned
They got crossed so, Niners lost oh
I am sad, and so I rhyme.
