Superchick Album

[Chorus:]
It's high school (high school), could be (could be) a mini me of the rest of society,
There's always (always) a prom queen (prom queen), there'll always be, always be sororities,
Sadly (sadly) some will be (some will be) eternally keeping score for popularity,
And just cause (just cause) they all do (they all do) doesn't mean we have to act like we're in high school,
Doesn't mean we have to act like we're in high school

Hight school is like a big competition
Beauty contests, prom court is the mission
There can only be one queen, one king
Everyone voting, everyone competing
But these are the rules, the way of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school
Someone talks behind your back, that's so high school,
Thinking you have to get them back, that's also high school
I know I'll be graduating early

[Chorus]

High school is like the state of the nation
Some people never change after graduation,
They have to prove to everyone that thier's is better
These are the rules, the ways of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school,
Believing they're too cool for you, that's so high school
If you belive it too, that's also high school,
I know I'll be graduating early

[Chorus]

We've all got bad yearbook photos
Which we've forgot to let go
And just like acne our insecurity
Should be something we left with the jv
So here's to letting go of yearbook photos
Things we kept that hold us down so,
That was yesterday, there's always tomorrow,
We are tomorrow, we are tomorrow,
I know I'll be graduating early

[Chorus]

I am what I am
I'm super fortified hundred proof girl with a band
And I'm a velveteen rabbit made of steel with a plan
I'm not your seventeen girl but it's not worth a can
Of worms, I'm not your beauty queen
I'm not the girl in glamour magazine
I'm not running for miss popularity
Cause I won't be what I can't be

[Chorus:]
But I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
And I will find my way to heal
And I will find my voice my stand

I am who I am
I am woman hear me roar and I am salt, I am sand
A million starfish stranded, landed, I'll throw back what I can
I'll save the planet, change the world, I'll make a lone girl stand,
I've got better things to do than be shown off
I won't be the doll you'll lock up in a box
Cause I won't be what I can't be

[Chorus]

Approval is your sword
Popularity your crown
But I'm not one of your subjects, you can't bring me down
You say I'll lose your approval if I'm not cool like you
Well, here's a newsflash for you - I've got nothing to lose
Your laughter is hollow because I don't care
You look down at me, but I'm not there
I've got nothing to prove and nothing to lose
Nothing to prove and nothing to lose

[Chorus]

It's not like they meant to hurt me
Watching TV, checking Britney, televised, my guys
Checking out her thighs and I roll my eyes and sigh
It's not like I even need to be competing with unreality TV, fantasy
Not for a smart girl like me
Some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution

[Chorus:]
Sometimes I have good days and it's good to be me
Sometimes I get the best of insecurity
And it's quite alright to be the one and only
But today I feel like the one and lonely

It's not that I don't know beauty is only skin deep
Just the skin I'm in, not the girl within
But one imperfection takes away my grin,
Not that I think I'm ugly, but
Acne throws me for a backslide
I won't go outside
Makeup can't hide how I feel inside
Some days it's hard to be a one girl revolution
[Chorus]

Oh, the one and lonely
We all have bad hair days
Those nothing good about me days
Just keep moving on cause they'll be gone
And we'll still be here going on
We have our yesterdays
No lunch cause the jeans don't fit days
Just keep moving on cause they'll be gone
And we'll still be here going on

[Chorus 2:]
Sometimes I have bad days and it's hard to be me,
Sometimes I get brought down by insecurity
And I have my days where I'm the one and lonely
But today I choose to be the one and only
Yeah, I'm the one and only

You're bored, gotta wonder if there's more
Waiting for the
Dreamlife you thought you had in store
Trying to feel something you can chase a life that's thrilla
Living on the edge
Smoking, drinking dream killas
Coulda been shoulda been woulda been
What might your life have been?
Today you're not a has been, but at your life's end
Will you have regrets then, have regrets then?
Are you okay with today if tomorrow is the end
Live today through the future's lens
Don't wanna wish you could rewind and play it again

[Chorus:]
Stand up, write the soundtrack for your life
It doesn't happen to you, you happen to life
Stand up, you know you're gonna have to fight
Don't wanna lose the will to find your light
Stand up, God gave you the gift of life
It doesn't happen to you, you happen to life
You're a light on a hill, you're meant to shine so bright
SO BRIGHT [x7]

We're all scared, gotta wonder what's out there,
Shooting down the ones who did what we wish we dared
Everybody's scared to karaoke in the open
Afraid we're not as special as what we might be hoping
So, we're frozen, haven't chosen
Just going through the motions
Faith and belief, courage overrule emotions
Stand up and be counted for something when it's time
Decide where you stand, take your hands raise em high
Live today through the future's lens
Don't wanna wish you could reset and play it again.

No one sits with him, he doesn't fit in
But we feel like we do when we make fun of him
Cause you want to belong, do you go along?
Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belong
It's not like you hate him or want him to die
But maybe he goes home and thinks suicide
Or he comes back to school with a gun at his side
And a kindness from you might have saved his life
Heroes are made when you make a choice

[Chorus:]
You could be a hero - heroes do what's right
You could be a hero - you might save a life
You could be a hero- you could join the fight
For what's right, for what's right, for what's right

No one talks to her, she feels so alone
She's in too much pain to survive on her own
The hurt she can't handle overflows to a knife
She writes on her arm and wants to give up her life
Each day she goes on is a day that she's brave
Each moment of courage her on life she saves
When she throws the pills out a hero is made
Heroes are made when you make a choice

[Chorus]

No one talks to him about how he lives
He thinks that the choices he makes are just his
Doesn't know he's the leader with the way he behaves
And others will follow the choices he's made
He lives on the edge, he's old enough to decide
His brother who wants to be him is just nine
He can do what he wants because it's his right
The choices he makes change a nine-year-old's life

[Chorus]

You're building a case against me, prosecutor, judge and jury
We've had this conversation in your head
Because I wasn't there you made up what I said
Or what I would have said
You know me so well
You've heard how I am and how I'm going to
Heaven knows we've never had this conversation
Should I be calling it a condemnation
Because you're not listening to me

[Chorus:]
So na na na na na
That's all I'm gonna say
Na na na na na
You've made up your mind anyway
Na na na na na
There's nothing I can do
So na na na na na
Couldn't we be friends if not for you

I feel like the teacher from Charlie Brown
Maybe I'm a pokemon pikachu
That's what comes out when I'm talking to you
You're a crusader, you've made me your fight
Your superhero name is Mr. right
Instead of trying to understand
You tell all your friends how wrong I am
Our not listening to me

[Chorus]

Can't we be friends
Why doesn't it end before a word is even heard
I look at you, your attitude
Why can't you see that it's not me
Oops, I did it again, I see
The person I'm talking about is me
Assuming you're the enemy in the crosshairs of my verbal Uzi
No matter who wins, we both lose
No matter who starts, we both choose
To keep it going on, and on and on:
But lets start listening and see

[Chorus 2:]
La la la la la
La la la la la
Sorry that it got this way
La la la la la
Next time I won't let it stew
La la la la la
Couldn't we start over me and you

You hate men, is what you say
And I understand how you feel that way
All girls dream of a fairy tale
But what you got's like a used car sales
Man trying to conceal what's wrong
Behind a smile and a song
And I'm not saying that boys are not like that
But I think you should know
That some of us will brow
Because:
All princes start as frogs, all gentleman as dogs
Just wait till it's plain to see
What we're growing up to be
Cause some frogs will still be frogs
Some dogs will still be dogs
But some boys can become men
Just don't kiss us till then

Dear diary
I saw this guy at the show
He was singing to me
At last I think so
All the world around me stopped when he said
Hi
He's the perfect guy
His hair, his eyes, oh I love his smile
When he opened the door
Knew he was worthwhile
He looked so good standing right next to me
So beautiful I know our children will be
This time I know it's true love

[Chorus:]
He is the one that I've been waiting for
I promise to love him
Forevermore
I've waited my whole life for the day I am his
I just know he's the
Wonder what his name is
Dear diary
Today I found a new guy
With a movie star face and the perfect lines
Knight in shining armor
Hero to rescue me
He'll be so romantic just like in the movies
He'll play the role of a boyfriend for me
Like in "here on earth" with leelee sobieski
There's just one problem something I might have missed
He's a movie star he doesn't know I exist
This time I know it's true love

[Chorus]

Dear diary
I thought my dreams had come true
Last week I found the one to give my heart to
Told all my friends about him, even tried his last name
Didn't see that to him it was all just a game
He seemed so nice, I've known him for a while week
But my friends didn't like him, didn't know him like me
No more crushes, no more ruses, learn to be satisfied
With being single again - wait who's that guy
You are cute!

[Chorus]

Everybody needs to belong somewhere
Life can feel so alone without someone who cares
And when life becomes something just to get through
That's when I'm glad that I belong to you

[Chorus:]
I belong to you
I belong to you
You're the one who will never let me down
Won't let me dwon
I belong to you
I belong to you

Sometimes life brings more pain than we can bear alone
When hope is gone and I have no strength to stand on my own
When nothing helps, there's nothing that I can do
You surround me and show me

[Chorus]

When love is gone, there's no arms to run to anymore
I'm all alone, there's no one for me to live for
Letting go of the things I've always clung to
That's when I need to feel that

[Chorus]

She moves to LA
She wants to be somebody
Three and a half years later she's still not anybody
She's still hoping for a break while she's waiting tables
Realizing some dreams are fables
Fear grows when she knows that she's out of control
Throwing up in the bathroom, hoping nobody knows
And she fears she's a failure
She forgets that God loves her
You tried and you failed hold your head up high
You climbed and you fell
Hold your head up high
You tried and you failed
Hold your head up high
Hold your head up, hold your head up high

[Chorus:]
Cause if we never make it ever
Then it's gonna be okay with me
Cause if it's not okay to fall sometimes
It's not okay to be
It doesn't have to bring me down
Let them say we're not big rock starts
It's not what we're about
We don't' have to be rock starts
We don't have to be rock starts

They said he'd never make it
Maybe they're right
His parents never believed that his dream could take flight
All he ever wanted was for them to be proud of him
It was the whole world to him
He needed to win
He gave his everything but sometimes it's not enough
He thinks he's a failure now, he's not worth being loved
He forgets he had the courage to climb up so high
The courage to try, the courage to fly

[Chorus]

It's not about success
Life is not a test
You don't pass or fail you just do your best
To see the view from wings of courage
To push on through when we're discouraged
It's all about the try all about the ride
Learning how you were meant to touch the sky
Failures are fliers who touch down
Only they know what it's like to leave the ground

[Chorus]

We all fall
Sometimes
We all let ourselves down
Sometimes there's nothing left but to live with what's been done
And know you're not the only one
Who falls
We all fail
Sometimes
We all let someone down
Sometimes there's thing left but to promise to ourselves
That next time we won't be the one
To fail
I want to tell you you can go on
That beginnings come from ends
I still believe in you
And so does God
He's the one who still believes in those who fail
He's the one who still believes in us who fall...
