Hey! Next up we have Loser Geek Whatever. Sophie as Jeremy; my idea for this was like when she's just getting to Foxfire and is still unsure of everything.

[Sophie]

I already know what it's like to
Be the loser
I should find out what it's like to
Not be the loser
Or the geek
Or the...whatever

I think I felt inconsequential
Since middle school began
I knew I had no potential
To be the leading man

But based on how today's going
I'm finally gaining ground
I even got some blood flowing
With no textbooks around
Which was cool!
But what really felt good
Was doing something that
I never thought that I could

It's not only school that's rough
Being lonely's stupid tough
Now, I think I've had enough
Of being the loser, the geek, or whatever

Jensi thinks that weird is rad
But feeling weird just makes me sad
And I deserve to not feel bad
From being the loser, the geek, or whatever
Sick of being the loser, the geek, or whatever
Yeah!

Woah! Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh!Woah! Uh huh, uh huh!


Dad taught me
"Follow your instincts"
"Trust your inner voice"
"Listen to your heart"
And such
My whole life I've followed my instincts
Well, guess what?
My instincts suck so much!

So now I'm taking direction some other voice
If my instincts have an objection
Then that means I'm making the right choice!

Behaving this way feels bizarre
But if things keep up the way they are
Then soon enough I'll get real far
From being the loser, the geek, or whatever

If Keefe can look me in the eye
Like I'm some normal, cool girl
I owe it to myself to try
Not being the loser, the geek, or whatever
Sick of being the loser, the geek, or whatever
Yeah!

Woah! Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh!

Woah! Uh huh, uh huh!

Prompt me, command me
And I'll obey
I have the bandwidth to do as you say
Especially now, since I clearly see
The problem has always been me

Take a breath
And get prepared
But still I'm just a little scared
For who gets cut and who gets spared
When I'm the cool girl, the hero, or whatever

If Keefe likes me in the end
Will I be able to pretend
I didn't fail any of my friends?

But, that's the shit I normally would think
Get over it, get priorities in sync
Just mute the voice inside your head
And connect to another source instead

I've earned the right to selfishly
Be all for one and one for me
I've wasted all eternity
Just being the loser, the geek, or whatever

I'm steady as the game's begun
I'm ready set, I'm player one
The future's now
I'm freakin' done
With being the weirdo, the wuss, the underdog
Being the misfit, the old-school analog
Being the oddball, the weakling, freak
The failure, the sucker, the please-don't-speak!

Oh, I can hardly wait for the moment when
I'm not the loser, the geek, or whatever
I'm not the loser, the geek, no never
No! I'm not the loser, the geek, or whatever
Ever
Again


Have a great whatever time it is!
