Wake Me Up When Postseason Ends



This is my life. It's a life I've chosen and will not move away from, but this is my life.


Sung to the tune of Green Day's "Wake Me Up When September Ends"





Summer is gone at last

100 years and more have passed

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Like the promise of seasons past

A Championship not in our grasp

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Here comes the cold again

Chilled from head to toe

Other fans can celebrate

While we just sit at home



As our memory rests

Of Go Cubs Go and of the Stretch

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Summer has come and passed

The Cubbie blue had faded fast

Wake me up when Postseason ends



No hope for a W again

Like it was when Spring began

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Here comes the rain again

Falling from our eyes

Drenched in our pain again

Watching these other guys



As we put away our gear

The other teams still shout and cheer

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Summer will come again

Maybe next year’s when we’ll win

Wake me up when Postseason ends



Like my father’s seen before

I hope my son won't see much more

Wake us up when Postseason ends
