Handballs of Fire
copyright 2012 by Tim Griffin

Bell rings and I run outside
You know the asphalt’s hard and the yard is wide, I got
One game, gonna get to the wall
Got to get the game going, buddy gimme the ball

And I’m so hot anyone can see
That the great wall of China ain’t greater than me, you got
One serve and it’s down to the wire
Better hide behind the wall when I hit handballs of fire

One serve, buddy, then you’re gone
It’s my moment of fame and my game is on, I got
One way to show the boys and girls
That inside of these lines I’m the king of the world

And I’m so hot anyone can see
That the great wall of China ain’t greater than me, you got
One serve and it’s down to the wire
Better hide behind the wall when I hit handballs of fire

(bridge) You know I might fight dirty for my domain
But the price of glory is paid in pain
You claim the game’s not fair?
Well, the kindergarten yard is over there!

Game over buddy, back of the line
‘Cause I’m the lord of the ball and this wall is mine, I got
No doubt who’s number one
Gonna break down the wall before the break is done

And I’m so hot anyone can see
That the Berlin Wall ain’t as burly as me, you got
One serve and it’s down to the wire
Better hide behind the wall when I hit that handball

So hot anyone can tell
That I do one thing and I do it well, you got
One serve and it’s down to the wire
Better hide behind the wall when I’m hitting handballs of fire
