Lyrics

[Intro]
My momma used to tell me
"Baby girl, don't ever eat lunch on the john"
Your mother called you "baby girl"?
Singing, ha-ha-ha-ha
So what if all the ducklings think you're ugly?
It's because they've never seen a swan
It takes all kinds of people who need people
So find people you can bear
We'll find your group, your herd, your flock
Come take a walk and answer my small questionnaire
Which I'll sing to you
[Chorus]
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
You'll be judged on sight, and made to fit
So find a clique and stick with it
Say, where do you belong?
[Verse 1]
Let's take a walk around the cafeteria, shall we?
I'll show you the world as I see it
[Verse 2]
Varsity jocks and JV jocks
Will throw you in a locker if you say, "Hello"
The rich stoners hate the gangster whites
Though they're all smoking the same oregano
Here's the sexually active band geeks
I got two words for you
'Embouchure' and 'Ew'
And if you like blowing and fingering
This is the group for you
Back me up, show choir!
[Chorus]
Say, where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
We all get a box, that's where we go
It's stifling, but at least you know
So, where do you belong?
[Verse 3]
There's girls that eat their feelings
And girls that don't eat
I like eating birthday cake around them
Makes 'em crazy
Debate team
And dance team
They like to compete
And if they don't win
Their parents ground them
[Verse 4]
Who's that?
Darling, that's the mathletes
Cool!
Joining them is social suicide
It's all college applications
And Doctor Who quotations
They wear their awkwardness with stubborn pride
This is my dance break
[Chorus]
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
You'll be judged on sight, voted in or out
'Cause that's what high school's all about
Where do you belong?
[Verse 5]
But who is at this table?
Why, it's Janis!
And Damian too
We're not exactly joiners
But we'll be good friends to you
And our friendship means you can skip the
[Bridge]
Geeks and the freaks and the peaking too soon
The strivers and survivors just waiting for June
The Junior achievers
The Christian believers
The tall, glowering wallflowers
Fending off skeevers
Forget this fuss
And solve it thus
Just come to lunch
And sit with us
[Bridge]
Okay!
(Yay! Sit with us!) Yes! Here's where you belong
Here's where you belong (With us)
[Chorus]
Here's where you belong
Here's where you belong
Here's where you belong
Here's where you belong
You need protection with pizzazz
And helping hands
That also jazz
Stay here where you belong (Here's where you belong)
Stay here
Okay, I'm stayin'!
Yes, here's where you belong
[Outro]
Hey Cady, this is where you fit
Hey Cady, this is where you sit
Here's where you belong
