The junior program
Develops senior players
That's not the problem
The senior men's team
Wins silverware in state comps
That's not the problem
The women's program
Is solid and consistent
That's not the problem
All abilities
Have a chance to partake here
That's not the problem
The engaged fan base
Volunteers and supports them
That's not the problem
So what's the problem?
Arrogant and annoying
They don't know their place
They didn't forget
What they already achieved
That is a problem
They can still see now
Their alumni succeeding
That is a problem
They are still dreaming
Of reaching somewhere higher
That is a problem
They might never stop
Pushing themselves to get there
That is a problem
They are a problem
They are inconvenient
They don't know their place
Ethnic origins
Not just the ethnic dollars
We do not want that
Admission of fault
Because they were left behind
We do not want that
A different approach
For the whole public to see
We do not want that
That they might work out
And show us all of our faults
We do not want that
They are a problem
Because then others may ask
What their place could be
Crush their arrogance
For another twenty years
Make them know their place

Know your place
