f you know American Pie / The Day The Music Died feel free to sing along
A long long time ago I can still remember how the post games used to make me smile
And I knew if I sent a text, that J Pat might have read it next
And I might just earn myself some Twitter clout
But sudden rumours made me shiver
And soon the truth it was delivered
Bad news on the airwaves..... Twitter was starting to rage
I can't remember if I cried when I saw it trending far and wide
They pulled the plug while they were live
The day 1040 died
So bye-bye to the 1040 guys
Moj & Donnie, Mike & Jason and Sekeres & Price
They took them away I'm still completely in shock
Don't forget to hashtag let's talk
Don't forget to hash tag let's talk
Now we tuned in 20 years ago To a.m. 1040's debut show Who would have known where it would go?
And did you tune in to Gillis chat? Where he called Moj bald and fat? Can you get your 'morning wood' too that?
Well I know the station hit a low
when they came out with the bro Jake show
They knew he had to gooo So they gave us Halford and Brough-oooooo
I was a lonely sports fan in quarantine and 1040 was my every day routine But it was killed by corporate greed The day 1040 died
We were singing bye-bye to the 1040 guys
Moj & Donnie, Mike & Jason and Sekeres & Price
They took them away I'm still completely in shock
Don't forget to hashtag let's talk Don't forget to hash tag let's talk
So we log back on the app
With burners and bros vs bitters crap
Learning what had just hap-pened
So come on now increase your dividends And lay off masses in a pan-demic As long as we can raise proffiittsss
And as Drance and JPat did confirm I started to feel my stomach churn Bell execs didn't give a damn The employees had all been canneddddd
Oooo the rage was mounting left and right The twitter cliques had started to unite Because we all knew that this just wasn't right The day 1040 died
We were singing bye-bye to the 1040 guys
Moj & Donnie, Mike & Jason and Sekeres & Price
They took them away I'm still completely in shock
Don't forget to hashtag let's talk
Don't forget to hash tag let's talk
I scanned through my radio To find another Sports Talk Show But all it did was hurt me more
But just as things were looking bleak I found it show they called Reach Deep With hosts named Daniel and Randiiiip
The others though we're still annoyed Cuz podcasts couldn't fill the void Not one fan was jokin Our hearts had all been broken
And our favourite guy Rick Dhaliwal The one we will miss most of all We raise a glass to him and all The great 1040 guys.
And we were singing.....
Bye-bye to the 1040 guys Moj & Donnie, Mike & Jason and Sekeres & Price They took them away and still completely in shock Don't forget to hashtag let's talk Don't forget to hash tag let's talk
