The song lyric is below:


THE GREEN MONSTER



CHORUS



I’M TWO HUNDRED FORTY FEET LONG AND GREEN

MILLIONS HAVE SEEN ME ON THE TV SCREEN

NO MAJOR LEAGUE BALLPARK HAS A WALL LIKE ME

I’M THE GREEN MONSTER IN BASEBALL HISTORY

Repeat third and fourth lines of chorus



I HUMBLY ADMIT I’M THE BEST OF FENWAY PARK

I STAND GUARD AT FENWAY IN DAYLIGHT OR DARK

THOUGH NOT AS LONG AS CHINA’S GREAT WALL

I’M BETTER ON DEFENSE BECAUSE I’M TALL



I’M THE TALLEST WALL OF ALL IN THE MAJORS

OVER THIRTY SEVEN FEET THAT’S ONE FOR THE AGES

MADE OF RAILROAD TIES, HARD PLASTIC PAINTED GREEN

I ONCE HAD ATOP ME A TWENTY THREE FOOT SCREEN



AS THE GREEN MONSTER LET ME MODESTLY SAY

I HOST THE BEST SEATS AT BOSTON’S FENWAY

I CAUSE THE VISITING TEAM PLENTY OF TROUBLES

LINE DRIVE HOMERS TURN INTO SINGLES OR DOUBLES



REPEAT CHORUS



THEY CAN’T PLAY BALL CAREENING OFF ME

THEIR FIELDERS STUMBLE AND SCRAMBLE SILLY

I CARRESS RED SOX HITTERS WHO DENT MY WALL

ALL FOES FEAR ME SOMEDAY I’LL BE IN THE HALL



WITH FOES I’M DEFIANT WITH THE SOX I’M RELIANT

I’M THE GREEN MONSTER FENWAY’S JOLLY GREEN GIANT

GOT A MANUAL SCOREBOARD THAT TELLS ALL

WHO WINS WHO LOSES SPRING THROUGH FALL



SINCE 1912 I’VE STOOD THROUGH GOOD TIMES AND BAD

THAT YANKEE GAME IN SEVENTY EIGHT MADE ME SO SAD

BUCKY DENTS POPUP HOMER BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE

TED WILLIAMS COMPLAINT ABOUT ME MADE ME CRY



REPEAT CHORUS



CARLTON FISK DESERVES CREDIT WILLING THAT BALL FAIR

HE COULDN’T HAVE DONE IT IF I WASN’T THERE

I LOVE BIG PAPI’S TOWERING HOMERS WHIZZING BY

HIS SWEET SWATS ARE BETTER THAN MOM’S APPLEPIE





SOX FANS SIT ATOP ME THE TOP OF THE SPORTS WORLD

WHERE OUR RED SOX NATION FLAGS ARE UNFURLED

ITS GREAT TO BE FENWAY’S WALL IN OLD BEANTOWN

THE ROAR OF THE CROWD’S HEARD ALL OVER TOWN





WORLD RENOUN BETH ISRAEL AND THE CITGO SIGN

LIVE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD THEY’RE PALS OF MINE

NO MAJOR LEAGUE BALLPARK HAS A WALL LIKE ME

I’M THE GREEN MONSTER IN BASEBALL HISTORY!



Repeat third and fourth lines in last verse a few times and fade
