Nerds - Studio Lyrics

[Verse 2]
And do you know why, kid, I can rap so mean?
'Cause I was reading while you were fucking the Prom Queen

Huddled up reading, no lacrosse team
"Huddle up, huddle up!"
What? You lost me

Sorry, bro, did I interrupt the circle of jerks all circle-jerking?
I need saving? No, fuck no!
Quoth the Raven? No, fuck Poe!
Ah, shit I'm bitchin', listen
It's they don't know what they're missing
For instance, I like poetry, I like instruments
Maybe we have similar interests

But it's no fall-balls, no balls fall
Just sit and scrawl on the stall walls

At 3 P.M. I pause
That shit sounds like applause


[Chorus]
NERDS
The faggots, the spastic fat chicks
Who sit in the back with no one to do their lab with
The NERDS
Kid with acne and tons of Proactiv
Packed inside his backpack
I got your back, kid
NERDS
The faggots, the spastic fat chicks
Who sit in the back with no one to do their lab with
The NERDS
Kid with acne and tons of Proactiv
Packed inside his backpack
I, I got your back (back, back, back)
[Bridge]
She stood in line and got cut
Tried out, got cut
Loved art, but the budget got cut
Then she got numb and she only felt when she knelt and cut

NERDS
NERDS, NERDS
NERDS


[Chorus]
NERDS
The faggots, the spastic fat chicks
Who sit in the back with no one to do their lab with
The NERDS
Kid with acne and tons of Proactiv
Packed inside his backpack
I got your back, kid

[Outro]
I know it's bad, kid
I got your back, kid

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
