There was a young man whose dream
Was to play for a pro sports team
He went for the Bucks
After 6 years said 'This sucks'
'Jump into the Lake-r' fans screamed
Didn't play baseball, never a Dodger
When he was younger, not yet an old codger
For Best Actor, thought he was a lock
When he took on the role of Murdock
He wasn't the Victor, was he Roger?
The man is a bonafide star
Recognized both near and far
You would be too
If you're 7'2
And you are? Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
