lyrics

You know that you’re clever but it seems a curse
Cos it gets their attention and just makes it worse
You want to be normal cos you’ve got no friends
It seems like the bullying will never end
CHORUS
Don’t go speaking your thoughts out loud
Cos it’ll only set you apart
You don’t want to stand out from the crowd
So don’t let on you’re smart
You’re good at your schoolwork but it makes you sad
And deep down inside you just want to be bad
You ain’t got it in you to break the rules
Why can’t the girls see that they’re the fools
CHORUS

You enjoy the lessons but you’re full of fear
You must try to make it to the end of the year
Your whole life’s ahead and this is only school
You’ll soon find it’s better to be clever than cool
CHORUS
Now school is over and you finally see
The world’s full of people like you and me
You did your exams your results are great
The next step is college and you just can’t wait
There’s no doubt about it, it was hard at school
With a small bunch of thickos who loved to be cruel
But where are the bullies who made your life hell?
They’re serving your burger and your fries as well
