I'm a Starter (Tony Allen)
Hey I'm Tony Allen and I'm a ball of energy
If anything slows the game down I'll pound my head with my own fists I swear
I'm a first year pro from Oklahoma State
And I cried the night I became a starter for the Boston Celtics
I'm a starter, I can do this, let's get minutes, come on this is cool let's go
Give me a defensive matchup that'll keep me busy
Guarding Lebron or Dirk Nowitzki Kobe or McGrady
I doubt that they be having career nights on my watch
I'm only taking high percentage shots
ESPN highlight dunks with ferocity
I'm missing all of my layups because of my velocity
It's way too much to ask for finesse
Next time maybe I'll just dish it to Al Jeff
Or dunk it myself I swear to god I'm a starter this is cool come on this is cool let's go
I'm a starter I can do this let's get minutes come on this is cool let's go
Remember Kedrick Brown well I'm better
I'll make you wish that your jersey was a sweater
Cause your game grows cold when I'm all in your faces
Pick off a pass and then I'm off to the races
Praying for an alley-oop from GP's good graces Good Gracious
I'm a shatter the backboard take you all to school like I'm up at the blackboard
Going on world tour or whatever to my first NBA Playoffs ever
I'll be D-ing up all those overrated ball hogs I swear
I'm a starter and you know what this is pretty cool
I'm a starter I can do this let's get minutes come on this is cool let's go
If anything slows the game down I'll pound my head with my own fists I swear
I'm a first year pro from Oklahoma State
And I cried the night I became a starter for the Boston Celtics
I'm a starter, I can do this, let's get minutes, come on this is cool let's go
Give me a defensive matchup that'll keep me busy
Guarding Lebron or Dirk Nowitzki Kobe or McGrady
I doubt that they be having career nights on my watch
I'm only taking high percentage shots
ESPN highlight dunks with ferocity
I'm missing all of my layups because of my velocity
It's way too much to ask for finesse
Next time maybe I'll just dish it to Al Jeff
Or dunk it myself I swear to god I'm a starter this is cool come on this is cool let's go
I'm a starter I can do this let's get minutes come on this is cool let's go
Remember Kedrick Brown well I'm better
I'll make you wish that your jersey was a sweater
Cause your game grows cold when I'm all in your faces
Pick off a pass and then I'm off to the races
Praying for an alley-oop from GP's good graces Good Gracious
I'm a shatter the backboard take you all to school like I'm up at the blackboard
Going on world tour or whatever to my first NBA Playoffs ever
I'll be D-ing up all those overrated ball hogs I swear
I'm a starter and you know what this is pretty cool
I'm a starter I can do this let's get minutes come on this is cool let's go
