"How Can I Stop These Double Faults"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

This song is based on what things were like for me during my first season of high school tennis. For those of you who don't know what a double fault is, it's where you miss two consecutive service attempts, and the other player gets the point.
I can think of better days
When playing on the court
Was everything that I could want to do
I would never see a victory
And it was all because of service errors

And...

How can I stop these double faults
How can I stop the game from going bad
How can I stop the sun in my eyes
Making me miss my serves
And how can I mend this broken racquet
When will I ever start to win
Please help me stop these double faults
And help me learn to win

There's always a sudden breeze
That pulls leaves off the trees
And makes the ball land just outside the line
I will never see a victory
Unless I really learn to serve correctly

And...

How can I stop these double faults
How can I stop the game from going bad
How can I stop the sun in my eyes
Making me miss my serves
And how can I mend this broken racquet
When will I ever start to win
Please help me stop these double faults
And help me learn to win
