Under the Hoops
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Chairs stacked up by the wall
Balloons caught on the net
Somebody's calling your name down the hall
Best one this room has met

[Pre-chorus]
Lights are low, the cake's still lit
Everyone's holding their breath a bit
Waiting on you to say when

[Chorus]
Larry, light the candles up
Let this whole hall carry your name
Another year we'd never swap
Larry, blow and start again

[Verse 2]
Someone's found the old backboard
Bouncing echoes off the beams
We came for cake but we stayed for more
Stayed to watch you burst at the seams

[Bridge]
However far this year has run
However loud the day gets
We're glad we get to call you one
Of the best this room forgets not

[Chorus]
Larry, light the candles up
Let this whole hall carry your name
Another year we'd never swap
Larry, blow and start again

[Outro]
Fold the chairs against the wall
We'll do this all again next fall
