Under the bleachers hiding for an hour
Coach is looking for me cause his job is to empower
I don't wanna go and I won't make a difference
I don't need a stupid award
I'm still in my parka watching condensation
I'd be glad to stay here till the end of all creation
I wish you will cue me, give a little whistle
Maybe just a wink of your eye
Cause I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
Could you be there for me and tell me that you want me on the team
I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
Basketball (basketball), Basketball
I was counting on you, you're the one who gets me
When I try my best you shoot a cannon of confetti
I've been growing older, you've been growing colder
But I believe we still have a shot
I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
Could you be there for me and tell me that you want me on the team
I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
Basketball (basketball), Basketball
Ooh alley-oop, don't make me go alone
Ooh alley-oop, don't make me go alone
Down to the buzzer, I'm going for the jumper
And ooh alley-oop, don't make me go alone
Oh, oh, over and over and over and over and over
I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
Could you be there for me and tell me that you want me on the team
I can't throw this basketball into my own arms
(Basketball) Basketball (Basketball), Basketball
(Basketball) Basketball (Basketball) Basketball
(Basketball) Basketball (Basketball) Basketball
