Listen to amazing NHL mumps song, to tune of Taylor Swift (Video)
As you may have heard, the NHL has been hit with an odd outbreak of the mumps, affecting upwards of six teams and around 14 players.
We’ve had plenty of theories and explanations on how this virus has spread from player to player. What we’ve yet to have is a definitive parody anthem for this bizarre epidemic – until now.
Tally Deushane, the ukulele-strumming songstress behind the classic “Puck Bunnies” song, is back with “Mumps Face,” a hilarious hockey-centric take-off on Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space.”
Sample prose:
Old illness, almost gone
Now it's a pandemic scene
Ain't it funny rumors fly
And I know you heard about
Crosby's face, let's be real
Wonder how the beat guys feel.
Grab your doctor by the hand
Hope he can make you better by the weekend
Yeah, it's totally contagious
Wait 'til it hits the Flames
When I log on Twitter (mmm)
I see another name
Got a long list of infected
Guys playing through the pain
'Cause you know I love the players
But it's just a game.
It’s just about perfect. Right down to the “better vaccinate.”
So please, enjoy this NHL mumps anthem, which is good enough to even make those afflicted with the infection laugh. Provided it’s not paralyzing painful with those inflated salivary glands.
