Straight to the Hoop

[Verse 1]
I've been looking forward to this night my whole life
And looking into the mirror, I think it's alright
And it's a, a place a man really wants to stand
It's an open book, it's an open hand
And I'm starting in the face of the Sun
I know it's just begun, and I hope I don't die
Because I'm living in a place of destruction
In the blink of an eye and I don't really know why, yeah

[Verse 2]
Open up your heart and leave it
On your porch for the blessed and rest it
Isn't that the way you really want to see it?
And we've been dying, we've been dying to meet ya
But you never come home, you never come back home
So raise up your arms, raise up your arms
And sing, "Glory, hallelujah," all love my friends
And I wanna be stepping, sticking it straight to the hoop, yeah
You gotta be evil, to know how to be good
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

[Verse 3]
It's in the blue skies
It's in the way she thrashes her eyes
It's a, a little bit like teleporting
You're lookin' for love, but you can't never find it
So you're lost on the run
Yeah, you're lost on the run
And you're looking for love
Not looking for fun
Yeah, yeah, sha-na-na
Sha-na-na, sha-na-na
