Revenge of the Nerds Lyrics
CHORUS: Would you please would you dance with me My darling would you please take a chance with me I see you over there with the jocks I see you over there with the rich boys I see you over there with all the pretty girls And I'm asking one thing...
Back in the day I used to rock the MC Hammer pants Jump in the middle of the party bust the running man Doing the Roger Rabbit at the middle school dance Got my man next to the bleachers now that's where we stand Walk up to the girl like "now will you dance with me?" She's like "well listen you'll never ever have a chance with me I got a boyfriend and he's at like six foot three 250 pounds and he could beat you up in his sleep And I'm like "well really what's that got to do with me?" I don't see him around here so why don't you just come with me I'll get you some fruit punch maybe some cookies I got the new Vanilla Ice tape how can you not love me? She's like "well first off all your pants is straight ugly You can't dance and your personality just bug's me So back up off me cause I really got's to let you know That my boyfriend's right over there ohh I got to go
CHORUS
I grew up in Inglewood a little brown boy Had straight hair and I rocked corduroy Walked down Venice way in my own way Wasn't very popular with the girls in 5th grade They used to call me nerd That was even if they used to call me at all Across the school hall I put my head and thought What could I do to pursue and fought In my own mind was a struggle of sorts School was a game and I was off court On the bench and the coach wouldn't let me off once I sat in the corner of the yard like a dunce And all I ever wanted was the girl to have lunch Maybe in the cafeteria with some punch But it didn't happen I didn't have heart Cause I knew how it would end from the start and then I asked...
CHORUS
When I was growing up it was hard to be happy Kids knock the books out my hand and make fun of my acne (exactly) Give me a wedgie while they throw spitballs at me And stuff me in my own locker and laugh at me (ahhhh ha..) oh you think that's real funny Cause I'm 5 foot with huge feet and I dress crummy And all the school bullies want to just take my lunch money C'mon man I only got a dollar twenty Ya know ya life is just really sad man When you play dodge ball your picked as the last man And ya run as fast as ya can just like a mad man Cause the football team wants to throw you in the trash can So really will this madness ever end Really will the nerd ever get revenge? Will this girl call me back at around ten? Will you go out w/ me? I just want to be friends
CHORUS
Now days I'm a little older plus a little bolder But it seems like I just can't get over You ever have a day where nothing goes right Well that just seems to be the story of my whole entire life So anybody out there know what I mean? To feel like your third string on a football team? And ya never ever gonna reach any of your dreams? And your only hope is making onion rings at burger king But now a days a lot of things done changed Since Christ came into my life now and just rearranged The way I look at myself son it aint the same I drive in a whole 'nother lane going against the grain I know it might just seem a little strange The fact remains I changed when I called on his name So call me a nerd call me lame it don't matter to me See all I need to know is that my wife will dance with me
