Lyrics

Bye, Bye Bully


Na na na na na, Na na na na na.
Once I knew a boy named Beau
Who lived on a farm. Where? I don't know,
But a bully came and called him a name,
And tried to get his goat.

Once I knew a boy named Blake
Who rowed a boat on a little lake
'Til a bully came and called him a name,
And tried to rock his boat.

Hey you, cut it out;
Your names are not about me.
I'll walk away with my head up high,
And say, by the way, nice try. (Nice try.)

And I once knew a girl named, Kim
Who was climbing up on a jungle gym,
When a bully came and called her a name,
And tried to tease her down.

Hey you, please, cut it out;
Your teasin's not about me.
I'll walk away with my head up high,
And say, by the way, nice try. Nice try.

Don't let 'em get your goat or rock your boat or get the best of you.
They're just looking for love in the weirdest way with what they say or do,
Be do be do be do be do.

Hey you, cut it out,
And if you can't, you'll be without me,
'Cause I'll walk away with my head up high,
And say, by the way, goodbye. Nice try.

Bye, bye bully. (repeated)
Names will never hurt me, no matter what you say.
I'll tell the teacher, 'cause it's not okay.
I'll just ignore you, no matter what you say.
A bully's just unhappy, and havin' a bad day. (Poor bully.)
