For our Cowboys-Redskins pregame special, producer Or Moyal had a chance to do a parody song. He chose 'For Once in My Life,' the song made famous by Stevie Wonder (and many others) as his inspiration. Photographer Taylor Lumsden shot the recording at Perry's Steakhouse in Uptown Dallas. Enjoy!

Enjoy!

LYRICS:

For once in my life, oh, this team’s a contender
It feels like I’ve waited too long
No longer a cynic, I’ve had to surrender
That's why I've written this song.

For once I can touch that which other teams knew of
Romo’s back has held true.
From worst to… decent, the defense grew.
They’re winning and likable too.

They signed Michael Sam and there was no distraction
Won 6 straight, they just didn't care.
Defeated the champs, and the one poor reaction
Was Randle, who stole underwear.

For once, I can say, this team's mine, you can't take it
As long as Demarco holds up we can make it
I believe they can win before I’m a retiree…

For once in my life… I finally love Jeeeerrryyyyy.
