I just got picked last in gym class,
My crush was laughing from the stands,
Yesterday I asked her to the Valentine's dance,
She claimed she already made plans
The swervy courage of the underdog,
Never saw it coming, never saw it coming,
Waiting in line til he's number one,
His little heart is thumping, little heart is thumping
Captain sprained his ankle now I got my chance,
Laced up my kicks, "Coach put me in,"
Started a romance with my breakaway pants,
When I tried to rip them off everyone grinned
The hidden courage of the underdog,
Never saw it coming, never saw it coming,
Waiting in line til he's number one,
His little heart is thumping, little heart is thumping
Clock is ticking, got the ball,
Crowd is cheering, show them all,
My crush was kissing the captain in my place,
Instead of shooting I threw it in his face
The swervy courage of the underdog,
Never saw it coming, never saw it coming,
Waiting in line til he's number one,
His little heart is thumping, little heart is thumping
