Straight To The Hoop

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

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

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
