about

Just another demo of one of my original songs

lyrics

It must be nice to be you, being everything that you are
Having the ability to wrap others round every finger
That you have, its bad
God knows it makes me so mad, that you always have it your own way

You talk, I get bored at all of the insults that you have to say
Yet you go around like you’re the queen who happened to save the day
But why when I try to get by, it doesn’t work out for me?
I guess some people have it all

But in this game you play
You always seem to win
Even if you cheat a bit, nobody cares
They’re not even listening
Just like a cat with a mouse, you hunt to stay on top
Because you are ‘popular’ and I am not

So please shut your mouth, you’re not as important as you think
Going around with al the boy’s attention
I watch you collecting up those winks
It’s not fair, but why should I even care?
One day you’ll be cleaning my car, and ill be ahead of you by very, very far

But in this game you play
You always seem to win
Even if you cheat a bit, nobody cares
They’re not even listening
Just like a cat with a mouse, you hunt to stay on top
Because you are ‘popular’ and I am not

It always seems like I’m seen as ‘one of the boys’
Not into all this backcombed hair but maybe that’s my choice
So I’ll wear my sneakers with a skirt all year long
Get myself a movie career or write myself a million songs

So, hey you! Yeah, over there!
With your hot pant shorts and your 50-story hair
I’ll get by ambitions sky-high, maybe get famous without a single care
And the world will be my oyster, to do just as I please
While you’ll be the one working in a fast-food joint, cleaning down on your knees

But in this game you play
You always seem to win
Even if you cheat a bit, nobody cares
They’re not even listening
Just like a cat with a mouse, you hunt to stay on top
Because you are ‘popular’ and I am not
Miss popular, miss popular, miss popular
