Popular Song

You were the popular one, the popular chick

It is what it is, now I'm popular-ish

Standing on the field with your pretty pom-poms

Now you're working at the movies, selling popular corn

I could have been a mess, but I never went wrong

'Cause I'm putting down my story in a popular song

I said, I'm putting down my story in a popular song

My problem, I never was a model

I never was a scholar, but you were always popular

You were singing all the songs I don't know

Now you're in the front row, 'cause my song is popular

Popular

I know about popular

It's not about who you are or your fancy car

You're only ever who you were

Popular

I know about popular

And all that you have to do, is be true to you

That's all you ever need to know

So catch up, 'cause you got an awful long way to go

So catch up, 'cause you got an awful long way to go

Always on the look out for someone to hate

Picking on me like a dinner plate

You hid during classes and in between 'em

Dunked me in the toilets, now it's you that cleans them

You tried to make me feel bad with the things you do

It ain't so funny when the joke's on you, ooh

The joke's on you

Got everyone laughing

Got everyone clapping, asking

How come you look so cool?

'Cause that's the only thing that I learned at school, boy

Uh-huh, I said, that's the only thing that I learned at school

My problem, I never was a model

I never was a scholar, but you were always popular

You were singing all the songs I don't know

Now you're in the front row, 'cause my song is popular

Popular

I know about popular

It's not about who you are or your fancy car

You're only ever who you were

Popular

I know about popular

And all that you have to do, is be true to you

That's all you ever need to know

That's all you ever need to know

So catch up, 'cause you got an awful long way to go

So catch up, 'cause you got an awful long way to go

That's all you ever need to know

You're only ever who you were

That's all you ever need to know

You're only ever who you were

That's all you ever need to know

That's all you ever need to know

Popular

I know about popular

It's not about who you are or your fancy car

You're only ever who you were

Popular

I know about popular

That's all you ever need to know

It's not about who you are or your fancy car

You're only ever who you were

That's all you ever need to know

Popular

I know about popular

That's all you ever need to know

And all that you have to do, is be true to you

That's all you ever need to know

That's all you ever need to know
