There are many professional ball players working in the NBA Some who make more money in one game than we make in a year And one by-product of this industry is something called a "sneaker deal" All you have to do is have a promising career Then the companies come courting, they see $$ signs in every pair Of inexpensive highly marked up shoes that they'll be hawking Then they slap a famous name on footwear cheaply made in China And they charge a hundred bucks a pair - the athletes do the talking Unfortunately the targets of these ad campaigns are not The rich and wealthy well-to-do's with lots of cash and extra savings They're the kids of working folks or single parents, some on welfare Who now have the added pressure of these shoes their kids are craving Here comes Hakeem Olajuwon, the wondrous Houston center Who's done everything a player could hope to do in his profession Except 'have a shoe', he's never 'had a shoe', can you believe it? 'Til the Rockets took the title home two seasons in succession Whereupon a company picked up the ball and dropped a dime and rang him up They said "We wanna put your nickname on our sneaker line, Hakeem We're proud that you're a winner, we can both make lots of money Every kid'll wanna have 'em, and we'll call your shoe "the Dream" "You want to use my name for what?" Was all Hakeem purported "A shoe" they said. "A what?" "A shoe." "God Bless You" he retorted But Hakeem, a most religious man, reflected on their offer And responded with a most resounding "Yes, on one condition That these 'dreams' you wish to sell you price at less than thirty-five dollars If you stick to that you have my permission." "But who would wear such cheap shoes?" they reacted in a panic Knowing full well that the going rate was that and more times three "I will," said Hakeem to them and that's just what he did That whole next season in the NBA, for all the world to see That's right, he wore those low-cost brogans right there on his size sixteens And on each box is printed "Make commitments, dare to dream" Oh, by the way, they sold 1.8 million pairs it seems Well, 1.8 million and one 'cause now I wear the Dreams
