The Power Forward Is You

You got your net turned round, dunking upside down.
Through the crushing court.
Through the sunken crowd.
You don't know what it means, 'cos you're an airless ball
You can't shoot at all.
You're dressing up your coach
It's all second hand
It's all pre game
You don't understand.
Just a broken court
Still an empty sort
You wanna block the shot
And you know what they're gonna do with that B-Ball
They're gonna slam it in the net.
When you go walking out on the hard ball court
Without a Ball to slam
Without a game plan
Knowing what you need, what you cannot do.
The power forward is you.
They box on yourself 'cos there ain't no one else
Who feels quite as good for man-to-man defense.
You know this game well.
Know what it's not.
Just wanna block the shot.
And you know what they're gonna do, with that B-Ball
They're gonna slam it in the net.
