M Y R E D H O O D E D S W E A T S H I R T by Adam Sandler My mom bought you when I was just thirteen, The brightest red sweatshirt that I ever seen. She got an extra large, so I wouldn't grow out. "That's too big for you!" the other children would shout. But we stuck together. We didn't quit. And now the children say, "What a perfect fit." I love you, sweatshirt. Red hooded sweatshirt. Dip Dip Dip. Sweatshirt. Shama-lama-ding-dong. Sweatshirt. I like to rest my hands in your kangaroo pouch. It makes them feel comfy like a big, soft couch. And I don't care if the weather's no good. I say, "See you later, rain," as I put up my hood. Remember that long bus trip when I needed a nap? I used you as a pillow in that Spanish lady's lap. I love you, sweatshirt. Red hooded sweatshirt. Dip Dip Dip. Sweatshirt. Shama-lama-ding-dong. Sweatshirt. Oh, what is it about you that makes me so jolly? Is it your 50 cotton or your 50 poly? I don't know . . . oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo Oh, red hooded sweatshirt. We've been through a lot together. Like that time I played in that shirts and skins basketball game. And I had to take you off and throw you in the corner of the gym. I was midway through the game, and then I saw you lookin' at me. You were starin' as if to say, "Adam, you suck at basketball. You dribble like a damn woman." I was so mad I challenged you to a game of one-on-one. And you know, sweatshirt, even though I beat you 11-9, deep in my soul I know you missed those lay-ups on purpose. You let me win. And that's why... I love you, sweatshirt. Red hooded sweatshirt. Dip Dip Dip. Sweatshirt. Shama-lama-ding-dong. Sweatshirt, I love you soooooooo.
