Using your imagination, sing along to the tune of "If today was your last day" by Nickelback. Or just read along and look at the pictures. That's what I'm doing...

A good friend gave me some great advice
He said there's a group break and it's all right
You pick your team, gather up a lot of dimes
And then you go and visit joecollector's site
There's a risk you take, but its worth the ride

I got my group break cards today and I just gotta say
The cards are cool and really great
I got nice cards from all the packs
With great pictures on the wax
I can't believe the luck I had, I got my group break cards today.
I got, I got, I got my group pack cards today.

Bowman's Best Utley, Reyes, and Mauer
Zimmerman, Gorkys, and an auto Kyle
There's a Derrek Lee, Sizemore's quite a guy
And the Roger Clemens card looks nice
Why'd they scan so blue on my device?

I got my group break cards today and I just gotta say

I got nice cards from all the packs
With great pictures on the wax
I can't believe the luck I had

And then I got some A and G
Zimmerman bat card and three
Custer, Martis - one's mini
Six of these cards are showing gloves
And I'm thanking God above
for Squares of cardboard I do love in the group break cards today

I got my group break cards today
Peralta, Hafner game-used and a Scott Lewis
Martinez it's too late, here's Crowe's card
Berg is stacking his own cards

Shoppach's at the plate
Shin-Soo Choo and Grady Pride
Cliff, Travis, Jhonny
Sizemore steals another base with a slide

I got my group break cards today and I just gotta say
The cards are cool and really great
I got nice cards from all the packs
With great pictures on the wax
I can't believe the luck I had

I am left with cards, these three
Shin-Soo Choo smilin back at me
Tunnicliffe sails the seven seas
Carmona's wearing a white glove
And I'm thanking God above
JoeCollector's havin' fun

I got, I got, I got my group pack cards today.

A couple notes:
-- I did this in about 30 minutes, so if you enjoyed it, then you can marvel that I kicked it out so quickly. And if you thought it stunk, just remember I din't spend *too* much time on it (see, it works both ways).
-- I took the liberty of adding the chorus one more time at the end because, well, I had more scan than the song allowed. It's a parody. It's fun. It's a fun time.
-- *THANK YOU* to Jeff over at IamJoeCollector for holding these great monthly (and bonus) breaks!
-- Does every single box of A&G come with a guaranteed Tunnicliffe!?
Okay, technically, this is more than a couple notes. This officially counts as "some" notes, as two is a couple, three is a few, and four is some. I think if you have five or more, you just rework it into an additional paragraph. So, with that, and the fact I do not wish to add a whole other paragraph even though this single note alone qualifies as one, I hope you had fun!
Update:
In case following the lyrics was too hard with the pictures in the way, here is the whole song. Why? I don't know, he's on third and I don't give a darn!
