When I go to sleep I Pray
I'm waking up to "I've got you babe"
Like the guy from Groundhog Day
Just wanna live forever this way
Flashback to seventeen
Got my ass kicked by the football team
Another loser on the scene
Editor of the chess club fanzine
I asked you out for losing Truth or Dare
The guys were cracking up 'til you said yeah
Pinch me is this real
I'm on a one way ticket outta Loserville
Now I'm off the social flatline
Things are so good that I'm
Taking down my Star Trek shrine
And you're more than just a valentine
You're my ticket outta Loserville
She gives me butterflies
Says I'm not like all the other guys
Doesn't care what car I drive
She still enjoys the ride
Now when I go to sleep I know
That she'll be there tomorrow
And it gives me vertigo
It was just a week ago that
I asked you out for losing Truth or Dare
The guys were cracking up 'til you said yeah
Pinch me is this real
I'm on a one way ticket outta Loserville
Now I'm off the social flatline
Things are so good that I'm
Taking down my Star Trek shrine
You blew me out on a Sunday night
You were bored to tears pretending
Knew what you wanted and I'm nothing like
The guy in your happy ending
But you were wrong to lead me on
Now every night I wake up screaming
Where the hell did I go wrong?
And where is Scotty when you need him?
Pinch me is this real
I'm on a one way ticket back to Loserville
Heading for the social flatline
Things are so bad that I'm
Dusting off my Star Trek shrine (One more time)
This is where it ends
And I can taste the glory
How can I depend on a better story?
Made it
Blew it
Couldn't save it
Think about her all the time
It's like I never had a Valentine
So I guess I better kiss goodbye
To my ticket outta Loserville
