Greener
In the net it’s a swish
The pass was served on a dish
Defender fazed
Defender pays
I didn’t come to miss
The release was truly bliss
When it goes in, I’m full of tish
It’s always a make, that's how I was raised
In the net, no need for a wish
It’s crazy, the shot was truly delish
Not fully American, my dad’s Irish
It’s all good though because how my shooting, they get crazed
Now with all this attention, I get praised
After I shoot, my celebration is flopping around like a fish
I guess you can do anything when you make shots like this
