In the days before GPS
And other miscellanea
A pitcher got lost trying to find
The Fulton County Stadium
Running out of gas
On a road that goes round and round
Stopped at a Circle K
The clerk said “Shouldn’t you be on the mound?â€
Ring Road I-285
We call it The Perimeter
So easy to just go in circles
If you didn’t know where you were
Driving up from Athens
To a gig at the 688
Listening to Skip Carey
Wondering why Phil Niekro was starting in his place
Pascual on the perimeter
There’s got to be an exit here
Pascual on the perimeter
There’s got to be an exit here
You’ve gotta
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time!
Playing it for laughs years later
Pitching burgers on the tube
Making light of his bad day
Like some kind of small town rube
I wish that funny postscript was
The punch line and the story’s end
But history’s ain’t always kind
Sometimes hard to comprehend
Pascual on the perimeter
Pascual on the perimeter
Pascual on the perimeter
There’s got to be an exit here
Pascual on the perimeter
There’s got to be an exit here
You’ve gotta
Get me to the game on time
Pascual on the perimeter
You’ve gotta
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time
Get me to the game on time
