Sung to the tune of "Aloutte"
Lyrics by The Animals

REFRAIN Herbert, Perry, Herbert, Herbert Perry. Herbert Perry, what a bum is he! Does his mother drive a bus? Yes his mother drives a bus. Drives a bus, drives a bus Oh Oh Oh Oh REFRAIN Did he lose the Miami game? Yes he lost the Miami game. Miami, game, Miami game. Oh Oh Oh Oh

REFRAIN

Did he make a good quarterback?
No he made a bad quarterback.
Bad quarterback, bad quarterback.
Oh Oh Oh Oh

REFRAIN

Will he make lots of errors?
Yes he'll make lots of errors.
Lots of errors, lots of errors.
Oh Oh Oh Oh

REFRAIN

Does he wear an empty cup?
Yes he wears an empty cup.
Empty cup, empty cup.
Oh Oh Oh Oh

REFRAIN

Will his team be swept by the Noles?
Yes his team will be swept by the Noles.
Swept by the Noles, swept by the Noles.
Oh Oh Oh Oh

REFRAIN

Note: Sung to Herbert Perry, another Gator first-basemen and pseudo-quarterback. He wasn't a good sport when we serenaded him game after game. He played backup to former FSU star Paul Sorrento on the American League Champion Cleveland Indians three years ago.
