Surrounded by smiling faces They grin and laugh as they work These are people who love what they do Who have always come through These are people who know who they are Who have always been the best by far I'm surrounded by people who've never had a doubt Who have never needed to wonder if this is What their life should be about But me, I can't think for that long I always get some questions wrong I feel their eyes turn towards their prey Wrong again, I can hear them say You don't belong here So maybe I'm not the smartest You don't belong here But I've still tried my hardest You don't belong here That's what I hear all them shout in my ear Who takes an 80? Maybe I'm busy Who goes to bed early? Can't work when I'm yawning Maybe you're not cut out for this life or isn't that clear I'm surrounded by people who won't take a break Who can type and type until their hands ache They never have any questions Can always pay attention How could I ever hope to win? When I can't even fit in? I wonder why I'm by their side More like falling more and more More and more behind I try to have a spine But with an eighty-nine They know that I am not like the rest Why try to compete with the best You don't belong here So maybe I'm not the smartest You don't belong here But I've still tried my hardest You don't belong here That's what I hear all them shout in my ear Who takes an 80? Maybe I'm busy Who goes to bed early? Can't work when I'm yawning Maybe you're not cut out for this life or isn't that clear Surrounded by smiling faces Or is it my imagination I can't be the only one Who struggles getting everything done Who's that voice when I get a B No one judges myself worse than me You don't belong here So maybe I'm not the smartest You don't belong here But I've still tried my hardest You don't belong here Someday I won't think that out of fear So here's to that 80 (Fine with an 80) In bed by 10:30 (Now no one's yawning) Maybe I am cut out for this life with its strife So I won't give up out of spite Maybe I am cut out for this life and someday have a wife And I'll keep on because nothing's cheap So I'll fight when I can to prove that I'm cut out for this life
