POPULAR PEOPLE
MAYBE I?M A LITTLE TOO POOR
OR MAYBE I?M A LITTLE TOO PLAIN
MAYBE I AIN?T SOPHISTICATED ENOUGH
TO JOIN YOUR CLIQUE OR PLAY YOUR GAMES
MAYBE I DON?T HAVE A GOOD ENOUGH JOB
OR MAYBE MY CLOTHES AREN?T DESIGNER COOL
MAYBE I?M JUST TOO QUIET IN A CROWD
I DON?T WANNA BE LOUD ? TO BE HEARD
(CHORUS) MAYBE YOU DON?T LIKE THE COLOR OF MY SKIN
MY PERSONALITY, OR NATIONALITY
I DON?T HANG OUT WITH POPULAR PEOPLE
THERE?S NOTHING TO GAIN FROM DROPPING MY NAME
PRETTY PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
THEY DON?T STOP TO NOTICE ME
THAT?S OK, I DON?T CARE
I?M HAPPY, EVEN IF I?M SQUARE
MAYBE I?M JUST A SIMPLE GIRL
MAYBE I?LL NEVER GO AROUND THE WORLD
I PUT MY BLUE JEANS ON
ONE LEG AT A TIME
WITH A LITTLE LUCK, I?M GONNA MAKE IT ALRIGHT.
MAYBE I DON?T? HAVE STOCKS AND BONDS
I DRIVE A 2ND HAND CAR, I PLAY A USED GUITAR
I?VE GOT CREDIT CARDS DUE ON THE 1ST OF THE MONTH
THERE?S GOES MY MONEY THAT SAYS ? IN GOD WE TRUST
(CHORUS) MAYBE YOU DON?T LIKE THE COLOR OF MY SKIN
MY PERSONALITY, OR SEXUALITY
I DON?T HANG OUT WITH POPULAR PEOPLE
THERE?S NOTHING TO GAIN FROM DROPPING MY NAME
PRETTY PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
THEY DON?T STOP TO NOTICE ME
THAT?S OK, I DON?T CARE
I?M HAPPY, EVEN IF I?M SQUARE
I DON?T HANG OUT WITH POPULAR PEOPLE
THERE?S NOTHING TO GAIN FROM DROPPING MY NAME
(SPEAK)
PRETTY PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
THEY DON?T STOP TO NOTICE ME
THAT?S OK, I DON?T CARE
I?M HAPPY, EVEN IF I?M SQUARE
I DON?T HANG OUT WITH POPULAR PEOPLE (REPEAT X4)
