I was always picked last for teams

I wore my sister's jeans

I was a loser kid..

And the teachers didn't care

They just left me sitting there

I don't know what I did..

But since then

How the tide's have turned!

(Chorus)

Cause I used to be the loser kid

Who always ran away and hid

No-one took the time to know me

The Kick me sign was always on me

Now everybody wants to know

What I do and where I go

At least I know they won't forget me

Cause I live with Miss McKenzie

And now it's all history

And I've put it all behind me

Look at what I've become

I get recognised in the street

And everyone I meet

Remembers the news I've made

(Bridge)

But since then

How the tide's have turned!

(Chorus)

Cause I used to be the loser kid

Who always ran away and hid

No-one took the time to know me

The Kick me sign was always on me

Now everybody wants to know

What I do and where I go

Atleast I know they won't forget me

Cause I live with Miss McKenzie

And then I see

The way you look at me

Takes me back to how it used to be

And still it's clear

The way you locked the classroom door

And whispered in my ear;

"You're what I go to school for."

You are

The one I go to school for!"

(Chorus)

Cause I used to be the loser kid

Who always ran away and hid

No-one took the time to know me

The Kick me sign was always on me

Now everybody wants to know

What I do and where I go

Atleast I know they won't forget me

Cause I live with Miss McKenzie

(Chorus)

Cause I used to be the loser kid

Who always ran away and hid

No-one took the time to know me

The Kick me sign was always on me

Now everybody wants to know

What I do and where I go

At least I know they won't forget me

Cause I live with Miss McKenzie
