The Lyrics

My friend won the lott'ry and he's got first pick
He's rubbin' it in my face
He knows who I'm pickin' and he wants him too
If he does, he's gonna pay

I don't have a second choice, he's all I want
And if I get him, I'll be okay
I go to the guy and tell him right up front,
"My friend, I gotta say...

I want Pe-- I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take LeBron?
Say no way, I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take LeBron?

He'll lead Sacramento to the Promised Land
And beat those losers down in L.A.
Yes, I'll win the league if I can have this man
So why don't you take King James?

I want Pe-- I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take LeBron?
Say no way, I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take LeBron?

And he makes it look easy
When he's shooting that ball, oh yeah
And it's music when I'm hearing three-pointers fall
Every day...(Let me tell you 'bout my other friend now)

My friend's pickin' second and he wants that Serb
I tell him that it isn't okay
'Cuz if I don't get him, I'll be quite disturbed
So my friend I gotta say...

I want Pe-- I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take Stephon?
Say no way, I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take Stephon?

If I don't get my player, I'll always trade
Na na, why don't you take Stephon?
Say no way, I want Peja, no way
Na na, why don't you take Stephon?
