Under the bleachers hiding for an hour | Under the bleachers hiding for an hour | ||
Coach is looking for me 'cuz his job is to empower | Coach is looking for me 'cuz his job is to empower | ||
I don’t want to go | I don’t want to go in; I won't make a difference | ||
I don’t need a stupid award | I don’t need a stupid award | ||
I’m still in my parka watching condensation | I’m still in my parka watching condensation | ||
I’d be glad to stay here 'til the end of all creation | I’d be glad to stay here 'til the end of all creation | ||
I wish you | I wish you would cue me, give a little whistle | ||
Maybe just a wink of your eye | Maybe just a wink of your eye | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||
Could you be there for me | Could you be there for me | ||
And tell me that you want me on the team | And tell me that you want me on the team? | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||

I was counting on you, you’re the one who gets me | I was counting on you, you’re the one who gets me | ||
When I try my best, you shoot a cannon of confetti | When I try my best, you shoot a cannon of confetti | ||
I’ve been growing | I’ve been growing colder | ||
You’ve been getting | You’ve been getting bolder | ||
But I believe | But I believe I still have a shot | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||
Could you be there for me | Could you be there for me | ||
And tell me that you want me on the team | And tell me that you want me on the team? | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||
Basketball | Basketball | ||
Basketball | Basketball | ||
Down to the buzzer | Down to the buzzer | ||
I'll go in for a jumper | |||
But ooh, alley-oop-oop-oop | |||
Don’t make me go alone | Don’t make me go alone | ||
Ohh, I'm alone | |||
Over and over and over, and over, and over | |||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||
Could you be there for me | Could you be there for me | ||
And tell me that you want me on the team | And tell me that you want me on the team? | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | ||
Basketball | Basketball | ||
Basketball | Basketball | ||
I can’t throw this basketball into my own arms | |||
Over and over and over, and over, and over | |||
