La la, la la

You were the popular one, the popular chick

It is what it is, now I'm popularish

Standing on the field with your pretty pompom

Now you're working at the movie 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

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

Catch up cause you got an awful long way to go

Catch up cause you got an awful long way to go

Always on the lookout for someone to hate,

Picking on me like a dinner plate

I'd hid during classes, and in between them

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

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

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

Uh, the joke's on you

Got everyone's laughing, got everyone clapping, asking

How come you look so cool?

Cause that's the only thing that I've learned at school

So that's the only thing I've 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

Catch up cause you got an awful long way to go

Catch up cause you got an awful long way to go

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

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
