Don't Look Back In Anger (original words by Oasis)

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Do you think you will find
A better place to play?
You said our front office is mean
By all the things that you've seen
They're driving you away
So now you're wearing Dodger blue instead
'Cuz they said the contract talk went to your head
Step outside that Fenway locker room
Stand out by that familiar place
Never take that look from off your face
Why'd you have to go and burn my heart out?
But now, Manny can't wait
He knows its his fate, he wants to say goodbye
We'll have Jason Bay
But don't look back in anger
When you go away
I never wanted to watch you go
But nobody knows if you would've played
Please don't think badly of your fans
You were our favorite man
But we lost you today
So now you're wearing Dodger blue instead
'Cuz they said the contract talk went to your head
Step outside that Fenway locker room
Stand still on that old base
Watch your home runs leave this place
'Cuz you always knew how to hit them right out...
But now, Manny can't wait
He knows it's his fate, he wants to say goodbye
I hate trading day
But don't look back in anger
When you go away
So, Manny can't wait
He knows it's fate, can't we wave goodbye?
We know he'll still play
But don't look back in anger
When you go away
So, Manny can't wait
He knows its his fate to leave us far behind
We know he'll still play
Please don't look back in anger
Don't look back in anger
When you go away
To my great dismay.

Hey, I never claimed to be a great lyricist.
