A song for Felipe Baby - Paying tribute to the Brazilian driver in his time of need
Published by Christine
Massa hasn't really had an easy time of it recently. Following on from his strong, but disappointing, finish to 2008, the Ferrari hasn't really been up to scratch. It's understandable that the drivers confidence might not be as sky high as you would expect but just lately, they seem to have been very downbeat about this whole racing business.
It's a surprise, particularly going into Bahrain, where Massa tends to do well, and the team have testing experience in the desert as well.
I can only imagine what Rob Smedley is saying to his young ward right now. In fact, I did imagine what he was saying, and I formed into a little ditty that you might care to listen to.
Here's my song to Massa, entitled Felipe Baby, that is intended to wish him good luck for the race tomorrow.
Hopefully that does the trick. If not, Luca di Montezemolo is in town, and that will surely make the Ferrari's fly up the order. We'll find out tomorrow!
Lyrics
Felipe Baby, we’re bringing the white visor to you
It’s new
You’ll be able to see
Felipe Baby, now hurry up and score us a point
Felipe Baby, don’t worry ’bout the rain, you’re strapped in
Breathe in
It won’t matter if you spin
Felipe Baby, but hurry up and score us a point
Think of all the fans back home
Think of all the trouble you’ll be in in Rome
We’ve worked too hard, so don’t give up
We’re making sure KERS won’t blow you up
Felipe Baby, I understand you’re mad at the car
We are
But we need some more wins
Felipe Baby, now hurry up and score us some points
Felipe Baby, there’s plenty lining up for your job
Like Bob-bie K
Alonso will show you up
Felipe Baby, now hurry up and score us some points
Felipe Baby, Michael’s contract will be renewed
So you’d
Better listen to me
Felipe Baby, now hurry up and score us some points
Don’t forget you’re our only hope
Kimi won’t do anything but mope
There’s not enough ice cream for the both of you
And only one gorilla suit – oo-oo-oooh
Felipe Baby, my song to you is ending real quick
The trick
To winning is to drive fast
Felipe Baby, so hurry up and score us some points
Hurry up, we need those damn points
Hurry, we need those points
