The Lyrics

True story except for the fact that I suck at all sports not just Tennis... Thus I've never made a box of Wheeties.

Skills are lacking we’re at fifteen-love
The ball soars above my forehead
I am pretty athletic at most games and sports
But at tennis I am brain dead

I am no Serena Williams, Won no Grand Slams
The only one’s I’ve had were at Denny’s with ham
If I never smack a volley I won’t give a damn
I suck at Tennis!
I suck at Tennis!!!

My serve hits the net and lowers my score
I’ve done this thirty times today
When I play badminton I rule the court
I smack that shuttlecock to space

I’ve played baseball and soccer even track and field
I have made a box of Wheeties with my rod and reel
But Wimbledon’s not close it’s lost all appeal
I suck at Tennis!
I suck at Tennis!

I suck at tennis, That green ball I can’t smack it
It gets nowhere near my racquet
My arm’s swinging all around the place
I suck at tennis, Balls aren’t hit past the baseline
Looks like you got the game point
Once I see it bounce
I’m acting like a maniac

I’m blaming things like the sun
For why I happen to suck
And why I am not in my prime
But all of my strokes aren’t swell
My ball once hit the umpire now he treats me just like slime
I’m going to practice in the parking lot
Car alarms blaring hope I don’t get caught
I’ll be like Tracy Austin although not that hot
I suck at tennis! I suck at tennis!
I suck at tennis!
I suck! I suck! At tennis!!!

If it's any comfort to you - so does Björn Borg too these days!

Viva las tennis, Matt! I myself haven't played tennis since my high school years. If I were to play right now, I would suck at it because my moves are so rusty! But tennis happens to be one of my favorite sports. One of the sports games I suck in is volleyball. I couldn't even make one serve. I suck at serving. My cousins tried to teach me but I keep failing. Hope you get enough practice at tennis and someday you'll be better at it. You scored 555 points for this one! BTW, I'd like to try racquetball someday!

I never follow anything where 'love" means nothing. Great song! ;D

LOL @ OMR... :D

I've never played tennis, but I've watched an anime called "The Prince Of Tennis". This parody's more like the dunce of tennis! (No offense, Matthias. Nobody's perfect.) 555

This parody was an ace, nice serve. Bonus points for Tracy Austin, she has to be close to 50 by now! I was always in love with Chris Evert. :-)

Venus Williams you are not, I'm actually not too bad at tennis myself. Fun, LCC, I really like that name you came up with "DivaLasVegas", makes me think of all the crazy diva performers in Vegas:)

I hate tennis but I like this parody.

I couldn't keep my mind on the OS while reading this - kept wanting to go into "I shot the Sheriff". But I'm with you on the lack of ability on the sports front.

Your sports skills suck but your parody writing doesn't.

Rex - September 20, 2009 - Report this comment

(Artistry) You don't need tennis, parody writing is your racket...and it takes more skill to hit a deadline than a baseline any day.

Medemia - September 21, 2009 - Report this comment

There could be worse things, like sucking at breathing or at using a vacuum cleaner. Those would truly suck. I was looking at this OS as a fun song to do and I was right. Good joearb. This went to 5-5 in the 5th set.

(Artistry) I feel your pain...or I would if I cared about sports in any way. Which I don't. So...555!

In the beginning I felt it was stressed oddly, but as it went on it got very fun. By the end of the parody I was really getting into it, the wheaties line was my favorite.
