The Art of Pistons isn't hard to master
Creative Strategy# 2-20: Restore. Rebuild. Repeat. Rinse.
The art of Pistons isn't hard to master
You rent some has beens who will never be.
Hire some injured shooters & pray faster.
We could draft from Krypton, it won't matter.
The art of Pistons isn't hard to master.
Your leading scorer is no master
who turns the ball over once a quarter.
Killian is raw. Stews uncooked. Wiseman?
The perfect recipe for disaster?
Give us your Thons, Garzas and Darkos.
These boys ain't bad; they're barely pros.
When a B-team's bench is better, faster?
.500 teams without their stars cream us?
Soon there will be no one left to stream us.
Concocted by a master's magic bean
who built a house of cards on gasoline.
If we got Wemby we'd be 3--17!
The art of Pistons isn't hard to master.
Sell a dream and deliver disaster.
