Lyrics

[EVAN] Being a geek is the loneliest thing in the world I gotta tell you, Rabbi When you're a geek, it's the loneliest thing in the world You're always wondering what everybody's laughing about And staring in at the world like you got locked out Nothing is worse It's a crime, it's a curse It's the loneliest thing in the world Being a geek is the sorriest state ever known I know what I'm talkin' about And being a geek doesn't go once you're gone or you're grown [RABBIS] Tell me about it, brother [EVAN] The girls all roll their eyes and walk away when you get close You've got a fatal disease no one can diagnose It's contagious, it's viral It's a downward spiral The loneliest thing in the world But when you're cool When you're cool, you've always got a crowd You can break the rules 'cause you're allowed You can sway the gang in any direction – You've got a high-speed connection When you're cool You're the epitome of charm and grace When you wanna get to second base If you're cool, you know you got a shot But oh! If you're not – It's a waste, it's a drag It's "suck" in a bag It's the loneliest thing in the world   [EVAN] Oh, yeah It's like a cold wind blowing, yeah If you like the wrong movies If you like the wrong bands If you take the wrong classes Don't speak! If it's Saturday night And you don't have any plans 'Cause you spent the past week Learning Greek – If you're very well-acquainted With the locker room toilet 'Cause your head's been shoved inside it Just squeak: If you start to get excited 'Cause you're Gonna throw a party But the people you invited All shriek – "You freak!" You're not unique! It's just the life of the geek! But when you're cool You can rally when the blues attack Ev'ry problem just rolls off your back You can handle ev'ry slip and slide Without breaking your stride! When you're cool You don't care that people disappear You don't care that your Dad's not here You don't care that your life's been uprooted and bent Without your consent! A geek's afraid it's never gonna be okay But the cool kid knows it doesn't matter anyway It's the difference between Being fine at thirteen And the loneliest thing... I said, the loneliest thing... I know it's the loneliest thing In the world [RABBIS] Geek, geek Geek, geek Geek, geek Whoa-oh Geek, geek Geek, geek Geek, geek Whoa-oh You're a geek! You're a geek! Geek, geek Geek, geek Geek, geek "I'm a geek!" Geek, geek Geek Geek Geek, geek Geek! Geek! Geek! When you're cool Oh, oh When you're cool Oh, oh When you're cool Oh, oh Whoa-oh, whoa-oh Whoa-oh, whoa-oh When you're cool Oh, oh When you're cool Oh, oh Whoa-oh... Geek, geek Geek, geek Geek, geek Hmm...
