[Intro]
(Instrumental)
[Verse 1]
Sicker than the kids staying home from a trip
All I want was your love
(Always go for the underdog)
And before he rips
Coming straight from her lips
All the want who left out
(Always time for the underdog)
[Chorus]
But someone's in the way
Someone's always in the way
And that's not gonna change
[Verse 2]
Waiting a lifetime
To finally win is the ultimate prize
(Always time for the underdog)
You tell the difference
Between you and him
Is the depth in his eyes
(Always go for the underdog)
[Chorus]
But someone's in the way
Someone's always in the way
And that's not gonna change
Am I?
[Bridge]
(Instrumental)
[Outro]
Into the night, it's all around
Point it out, receding crown
And when you feel like there's no one around (Woo!)
Don't let time g-g-g-get you down
