the tank is on - drew larson lyrics
now here’s a little story i got to say
about the coolest team in the nba
it started way back three years ago
with tilman and silas and me: rafael stone
i had a bearded problem you know him as james
he said he didn’t want to play in our games
philly’s his demand or maybe brooklyn
daryl callin on my phone cause he wants his man
ben simmons the best he’ll give
if he’s our franchise i don’t wanna live
the media is breathing down my neck
they can’t believe picks are all i get
lookin for a star
i gotta draft my own
his name is jalen green
i say wow cause he’s the one
(instrumental)
but the next season he starts off slow
it’s taking way too long for him to grow
the l’s were building up
boss’s patience wearing thin
his voice was ho*rs*
his throat was dry
he asked me for some wins
he said “can i get some?”
i said “shut up and listen”
he could have fired me
my head is start to glisten
i said “one more year
let’s aim for last place”
he pulled a forbes out of his desk
and put it in my face
“now my name’s fertitta
my son is patrick
he says the thing we need?
it’s time to get a big
we’ll tank for two more years
do i make myself clear?
gettin more stars will make us something to fear
finish the season the plan is not to win
they thought this tank is over
but it’s ready to begin”
(instrumental)
i questioned my coach about this approach
“you’ve got two choices of what you can do
it’s not a tough decision as you can see
you can walk away or you can tank with me”
he said
“i’ll tank with you if we can get wembanyama
he’s got a higher ceiling than president obama”
he does it on d
he does it from three
he does it better than anybody
so we’re on the slide
it ain’t a fun ride
something in my soul feels like it died
tank is on
it seems so wrong
but once we get to summer that’ll all be gone
we put our heads together to concoct a plan
first thing we noticed was al*p’s the man
that dude was ballin like a future star
we knew that playin him would take us way too far
stevie si said “hey let’s bench this kid”
i said “sounds good”
so i got a lob threat
kid said “hey houston fans i’m so happy
but use me wrong things are gonna look cr*ppy”
pulled out the ball
aimed it at the sky
he yelled “always”
and let a three fly
so he put this young team on the floor
no vets made our fans ran for the doors
i’m rafael stone and i got a plan
options remain open til i get my man
stephen silas wants a place in the association
so he follows my command
with his whack rotation
fans of embiid
but that all stopped
when may rolled around
and the draft order dropped
tilman grabbed the money
stevie si caught the flack
i signed a vet with a beard that’s black
(instrumental)
drew (bob marley sample) x2
don’t worry about a thing
cause organic learning
is gonna be alright, child
yah this is far west
