Wallflowers

We join in for fun
Is this how it's done?
We're allowed part-time
They pick and choose prime
Nice,... they let us know
Where to meet, let's go
Countdown,... ill at ease
Wait,... wait-for-it ... please

Nudge, nudge, shoot a glance
Assumed,... we don't see
It's quite obvious
But we keep it on the QT
And we pretend stupidity
Numb IQ, (check), RSVP
And we pretend stupidity
They condescend, WTV
Anything ... to take their minds off
Their own misery
And misery loves company
They're there, they're there, they're there, they're there
(and misery loves company)
They love to drama up (despair)
They're there, they're there, they're there, they're there

Forget it, relax
Soon, we'll turn our backs
When we leave the room
Shredding can resume
How we dress and look
How we live or cook
What we say and think
Think I need a drink

And run, screaming into the night

Calling on Wallflowers
Rally underdogs
The awkward are cool
Make it our time,... the status quo
Calling on Wallflowers
Rally underdogs
Break every rule
Sideline, social dance,... golden glow
