Dream Team lyrics

(4x)Red black green, red gold green
Dat's how we know we a fe we dream team

The other day
A friend gave me a call
He said that the dream team was playin basketball
Was so excited / that i hadda get a witness
The first time the nba was in the 'lympics
Players from the east/ players from the west
And you can bet that they took the very best
("except they left tim hardaway at home"
"yeah that was hella f***ed up!")
But anyway
I tuned in because i was hella psyched
To see magic johnson on the same team as mike

Gettin crazy / havin lots of fun
Makin sure that they got the job done
Fans were wavin the red white end blue
It seemed strange to me / was it strange to you?
Brotha's on the street / and everyone is scared a ya
So how could ten africans represent america?
Bullshit / it didn't mean a thing
'cause in the same year / we saw rodney king
So i thought / that i would put a team together
A team that i have been waitin for forever
Some a you / may know what i mean
But if you don't then / lemme introduce you to...
My dream team!
"spearhead in the area!"

(chorus)
(2x)Red black green, red gold green
Dat's how we know we a fe we dream team

Well chuck d'sannouncin'/ flava's doin' color
Halftime enterntainment by dre and ed lover
Malcolm x is the coach he's drawin' up the strategy
He's choppin up america's anatomy
'cause they're the ones/ we're up against of course
Are general manager is chief crazy horse
Huey newton/ 'cause he was extra hard
He's the one/ who would be playin at the shootin' guard
I dreamed charles barkley would be
Played by marcus garvey
He'd be throwin people off his back and makin
Sure they never got a rebound rebound / and
He'd throw it to the outlet
Nat turner/ 'cause he can turn the corner when
He's out there
He be flyin through the air/ throwin passes like
He really doesn't care/behind the back /and in
Between the legs
He's handlin the rock /as gently as an egg
He's throwin it in/ to angela davis's neighborhood
She's postin up down in the extra hard wood
She grabs the pill/ and then she puts her shoulder down
Get out the way/ 'cause she's gonna throw down now
Boom /oh my god! i just can't believe it
Get anotha backboard or bettah yet leave it.
We always play for fun /but we always play for keeps
The game is over and the loser's gotta sweep.
Up the glass/ that we busted in the ass
Set the record straight /about america's past
This is my dream team
"spearhead in the area!"

(chorus)
Dream team's in the house
Dream team's in the house

Well after doin that /we be headin for the ceremony
Hand on the heart /is a bunch of baloney
The spirit of/ the '68 olympics
Black power people/ can i get a witness
Fist in the air/ this is proper manners
While jimi hendrix/ is f***in' up the spangled banner
Up into the sky/ miles davis blows a horn
Look into the bleachers/ it's bill clinton sellin popcorn
So now we jump! and we have a celebration!
Shaquille 0'neal would provide the entertainment
To some of you this is a far fetched scheme
But to me... i'll tell you what it is...
This is my dream team...
"spearhead in the area"

(chorus)

Yeah sista rosa perks she gets the first seat
On the bench!
And dr. king, webring him in in a pinch.

Because i like to shoot hoops not brothas!
Beceuse i like to shoot hoops not brothas!
Because i like to shoot hoops not brothas!
Because i like to shoot hoops not brothas!
