When winter turns real crispy
And almonday’s are football now
You play my game with ole Plain Jane
Though O. P. Nutters calls it chow

Of course when it’s getting colder
We think it’s a nasty bummer
Infields are empty outfields too
Nary the boys of summer

I made this game to chase the blues
So you thought you're the one that did
Easy to think of MnM baseball
As your idea but it wasn’t you kid

To hit a single, draw dark brown
Two baggers once were light brown M’s
Here came a vote and introduced
Each blue now the same as them

My red M's came back to glory
O’ they did once cause bad cancer
So to clear the bases 'cept for it
That’s the MnM coaches answer

Can’t pitch to the mean green M’s
Homers are they in every draw
Only flying M’s o’er the fence
Can’t say that I ever saw

Obviously orange and yellow
Lack MnM baseball appeal
Always an out they are to me
They keep the score a bit more real

Everyone knows the way to win
You gotta not hit the batter
Under these rules score many points
How does chocolate even matter!

Now Walt calm down, remember chocolate is an
aphrodisiac. You better go home for lunch. I hope the Mrs. can keep up with you.
