La la, la la

 You were the popular one, the popular chick

It is what it is, now I'm popular-ish

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

 I said I'm putting down my story in a popular song

[Chorus:]

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

 So catch up

'cause you got an awful long way to go

 So 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

You hid during classes, and in between 'em

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

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

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

Ooh, the joke's on you

 Got everyone laughing, got everyone clapping, asking, "How come you look so cool?"

'Cause that's the only thing that I've learned at school, boy (uh huh)

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

[Chorus:]

 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 (that's all you ever need to know)

 So catch up 'cause you got an awful long way to go

So catch up 'cause you got an awful long way to go

It's all you ever need to know

You're only ever who you were

 It's all you ever need to know

 You're only ever who you were (It's all you ever need to know)

 It's all you ever need to know

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...

(That's all you ever need to know...)
