21 ContributorsThat’s How I Beat Shaq Lyrics The fourth single from Aaron’s Party – your boy Aaron Carter fantasizes about beating Shaquille O'Neal in a game of basketball. Shaq himself lent some guest vocals to really make AC’s dreams come true. [Intro] And it goes, and it goes And it goes a little something like this Hit It! Aaron's in the house Get up get up I wanna make it back Here we go Aaron's in the house Get up get up I wanna make it back [Verse 1] Yo guys, check out, guess what happened to me (Another crazy story, come on AC) I was hanging at the court, just playing some ball Working on my game (yeah, we heard it all) I heard the fans screaming, I thought it was for me But then I saw a shadow, it was 12 foot 3 It was Shaquille O'Neal (what? What did he say?) (How 'bout some one-on-one, you wanna play?) I told him why not, I got some time But when I beat you real bad, try not to cry (Please Aaron, are you for real? One-on-one with Shaquille O'Neal?) Yeah, 34 center from the L.A. Lakers (You must've been nervous) I knew I could take him Stared at Shaq, psyche him out I said O'Neal, you're in my house now Start the game the whistle blows Pay attention close 'cause the story goes [Chorus] It's like boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq It's like boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq [Verse 2] So check it out, I thought I had the lead But then he started scoring mad points on me I was scorin' the bricks (was he hitting all the shots?) I knew that there was a way that I could make it stop I had a plan, I could change the pace I said, "Yo Shaq you didn't tie your shoelace" He looked down, I stole the ball I'm taking him to school now, watch me all A 3-pointer, nothing but net Come on Shaq, had enough yet? Down by two, I'm catching up I guess you're getting nervous 'cause you already lost [Chorus] It's like boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq It's like boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq [Bridge] Dunk after dunk, jam after jam Cheerleaders are cheering (Aaron's the man) Dunk after dunk, jam after jam Cheerleaders are cheering (Aaron's the man) [Verse 3] Announcers were shocked, couldn't believe it was real (I can't believe a kid just stuffed O'Neal) One more second, was all that remained I put the ball up, I put him in shame I must admit that it sounds real crazy But the ball went in, then he cried like a baby Sorry Shaq, I should've let you win You're good too and we can still be friends The fans went nuts, they put me on their shoulders Then I heard a voice and it sounded like my mother's (Get up for school, you're gonna be late) Ma, can't you see that I'm playing a game? (How you could be playing if you're still in bed?) (Are you gettin' sick, did you hit your head?) Aw, man it was all a dream I guess that kinda thing could never happen to me If it was a dream and it wasn't real How'd I get a jersey with the name O'Neal? Woah [Chorus] Boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq Boom (boom) I put it in the hoop Like slam (slam) I heard the crowd screaming Out jam (jam) I swear that I'm telling you the facts 'Cause that's how I beat Shaq
