lyrics

We are the plan and we’re strutting our stuff
The deal is sealed when we show up
May look in over our heads, sure enough
But the magic of the man ain’t in the size of his truck

Awe babe, just blow em a kiss
Cuz babe, they just talking bout practice

Don’t beat around the burning bush
Send the real muscle when shove comes to push
Send the ones beyond preparation
Send me and my brethren, send the Peace nation

Awe babe, follow your bliss
Cuz babe, they just talking bout practice

Don’t listen to em honey, go on and put on that dress
They say “tsk-tsk” but they don’t know with what they're messing
Take it from A.I., don your threads
The cup holds an ocean for a true hoophead

Awe babe, listen to em hiss
Cuz babe, they just talking bout practice

When things aim’t happening we’ll take the blame
That’s the price you pay to love the game
The will to win, no it ain’t teachable
But with the Big Ticket, “Anything is possible!”

Awe babe, this life’s make or miss
But babe, they just talking bout practice
Babe, they already lost a step
Cuz babe, they only thinking bout prep
Babe, they can’t nothing prove
Cuz babe, they just rehearsing their moves
And baby, they’re all amiss
Cuz babe, they just talking bout practice
