The Matthew Stafford Song

Let’s raise our glasses and hope we never have to sing the Matthew Stafford song.

Thanks to Pride of Detroit for allowing me to stumble across this pretty quality song.  Hell, it beats “April in the D.”

Here’s the full lyrics:

I hope this works out better than Drew Stanton.
I hope they haven’t wasted number one.
Now he don’t need to end up in Canton,
But he better not be Joey Harrington.

Chorus
Matthew Stafford better be, worth the money guaranteed, that he’s gettin’ loaned before he throws a ball.
Or the Lions might come to 0-32 saying, “Hey it wasn’t Millen after all.”
Yeah the pressure is really on now that Marinelli’s gone.
It’s a bailout plan that better not be wrong
Or the Ford Field stands will hold just a couple fans singing this, the Matthew Stafford song.

I hope he works out more like Peyton Manning
Than Tim Couch, Alex Smith or Ryan Leaf.
Cause a first round disaster is pretty damning
and the prelude to a lot of years of grief.

Chorus
