how to lose a disc – song parody

How to find a disc: call a friend. Four eyes are better than two!

Parody of The Fray’s ‘How to Save a Life’. Sing along: original | instrumental

Step one, you say now keep it flat
It turns, you say relax, dude, please come back
It smiles, takes off into the air
You stare powerless in despair
Some sort of wind blows left to right
As you point left and it flies right
Into the bushes thick as thieves
You begin to curse your bad release

Where did I go wrong
I lost a disc
Somwhere while testing my power grip
And I would have stayed up in search all night
Had I known to bring a stronger light

Try to throw how you throw best
‘Cause after all, it’s just a test
Try to x-step like the pros
Without messing up your throws
Lay down a list of what is wrong
Mistakes you’re making all along
And try to fix them slowly
And try to fix them slowly

Where did I go wrong
I lost a disc
I had a line but I badly missed
And I would have stayed up in search all night
Had I known how to track its flight

As you begin to lose all hope
You pack your things, check one last time – but nope
Drive until you lose your discs
Golfing brings with it risks
It will do one of two things
It will fly straight to the pin
Or it’ll veer off course, OB
And you’ll spend all night searching past the trees

Where did I go wrong
I lost a disc
This Compass I just tried to rip
I guess I need a new mid, true and straight
But dang, that disc was truly great


It flew right because I round and release late – things I’m trying hard to fix right now. The Compass is hands down the most reliable disc I own. If I had to dump all my discs but one, I’d choose to keep the Compass. It can do almost everything – except glide.
