(Verse 1) I’m on the court and I miss my shot, I feel the heat, but I know I should not. I squeeze my paddle, trying not to scream, ’Cause this thing cost more than my whole team. (Chorus — Repeating Hook) 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 Hold it in your hand, keep it nice and stable. 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 It cost too much to treat it like a battle. (Verse 2) The ball goes wide and I want to shout, My temper says throw it, but I talk it out. I take a breath, let the moment fall, This paddle is fancy, I should not throw it at all. (Chorus — Repeating Hook) 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 Hold it in your hand, keep it nice and stable. 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 It cost too much to treat it like a battle. (Bridge) One shot missed, but the game’s still fun, I’ll laugh it off and keep on the run. I tell myself every single play, This paddle’s expensive—put it down the right way. (Final Chorus) 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 Keep it cool and calm, that’s the winning label. 🎶 “Don’t throw the paddle, don’t throw the paddle!” 🎶 Save your cash and stay unshakable.
