Speedy Ortiz - Basketball lyrics

In my defense I never played so hard for varsity But I'll score again That untouched net, a source of dred I wanted my own home to crawl through Still do Basketball in a vacant lot The surprising scent of a gland contracting Up against the playground fence With so much guilt I grew in protest You too One finger on the ball Suspended rounded ball spinning slow You go slow There is another point For the pointless team I'm cheering on With pom-poms and baton Why are you sweating your game Another holy spasm Although with radioactive conjuring's Their fearful lord Who waxed my brow and licked up all my salt Girls hit the showers now And if you wanna drown breathe slow Breathe not at all There is another point For the pointless team I'm cheering on With pom-poms and baton
