Iona Pie

Iona Pie

Upon learning that Don McLean attended Iona, I had grandiose plans of rewriting ‘American Pie’ to talk about Iona College in 8 minutes and 34 seconds of lyrical genius. There would be verses about New Rochelle and “Harold and Maude” and Loftus Hall. But then I figured I could spend my time doing something slightly more worthwhile (turns out I didn’t) and I would just rewrite the chorus about replacing power forward Alejo Rodriguez. Enjoy.

 

So bye, bye bang in the paint guy

Coach Cluess hit the rail on the recruiting trail

But the trail was dry.

Some juco whose name I can’t pronounce will have to give it a try

And hopin’ if he does good, Iona will end the year ranked high,

If he does good, Iona will end the year ranked high.
