The Pride of Nerds
Come with me
And you’ll see
The pride of a nerd
Who has strayed from the herd
Of people in this school
Who think they’re so cool.
You may ask how,
but I swear it is avow.
You say this cannot be
But listen to me,
I’m proud to be a nerd.
You’ll fly like a bird
When you admit this.
It’s utter bliss
To fly so high. Admit you’re a grind
And leave behind
Who you used to be.
Follow me
To infinity and beyond
And the cool kids will respond
By leaving you alone
And allowing you to hone
The skills you learn in school.
He who laughs first is a fool,
So turn and laugh back my nerdy friends
Because that is how my story ends.
