All About That Spike (With apologies to Meghan Trainor)

My volleyball reminder emails were getting more terse.  Last week mine was a one liner.  I decided to ramp it up.  I had some of these lines come into my head while cleaning out the gutter last night.

All About That Spike (With apologies to Meghan Trainor) (Footnote #1)

Because you know

I am all about that spike,

‘bout that spike, no dinking.

I am all about that spike,

‘bout that spike, no dinking.

I am all about that spike,

‘bout that spike.

Yeah, it’s pretty clear, I ain’t no 30 years

But I can fake it, fake it.

Like I’m supposed to do

‘Cause I got that wingspan that all the players want

And the anticipation to be in right places.

We see other people sweating at the Y

We know they working hard

Looking envious as they walk by

If you want fun, fun then join our game

Cause everyone is mocked,

but no one is ever blamed

Yeah, my daddy he told me “make sure you are having fun”

‘cause that’s what you remember when the day is done.

No one remembers the lunchtime you sat at your desk

If that’s what you’re into then I think that it’s grotesque.

Because you know

I am all about that spike,

about that spike, no dinking.

I am all about that spike,

about that spike, no dinking.

I am all about that spike,

about that spike.

I am bringing the volleyball out

Go ahead and tell your bosses so

We are just playing and you gotta go

No one remembers the lunchtime you sat at your desk

If that’s what you’re into then I think that it’s grotesque.(2)

(Sorry Meghan)…
