The Lyrics
Maybe it was because Grant Hill couldn't play (again), or maybe it was because Tracy McGrady quit on them. Whatever the reason, the Orlando Magic are the biggest underachievers in NBA history, losing 60-plus games in 2003-04, a number they could've easily won. (At least, the fans are glad the season's over now.)
I saw the season crashing down
Don't know why the Magic stunk
Orlando was a sorry town
Don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Don't know why the Magic stunk
When they signed McGrady, I thought they did create a beast
That would beat weaker foes, but they stumbled in the East
McGrady's drinking wine, cause that year's on his mind forever
He could've led the team, helped them any way he could
And make the fans forget they knew Shaq had gone to Hollywood
McGrady's drinking wine, cause that year's on his mind forever
Orlando broke my heart, don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Am surprised they fell apart, don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Don't know why the Magic stunk, I-I-I don't know why the Magic stunk
Don't know why the Magic stunk
Orlando was a sorry town
Don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Don't know why the Magic stunk
When they signed McGrady, I thought they did create a beast
That would beat weaker foes, but they stumbled in the East
McGrady's drinking wine, cause that year's on his mind forever
He could've led the team, helped them any way he could
And make the fans forget they knew Shaq had gone to Hollywood
McGrady's drinking wine, cause that year's on his mind forever
Orlando broke my heart, don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Am surprised they fell apart, don't know why the Magic stunk, I
Don't know why the Magic stunk, I-I-I don't know why the Magic stunk
