I got a spoonful of sugar
That I think you'd like
No, I don't wanna preach
But I think you might
Wanna cup
(Sip it up, sip it up)
(Sip it up, sip it up, sip it up)
I might be young
But I know my mind
I'm sick of being told
What's wrong or right
So give it up
(Give it up, give it up)
(Give it up, give it up, give it up)
Uh-oh, now there you go
Out of your comfort zone
Cause I'm breaking out
Not breaking down, down, down, down
Ain't got nothing to prove
Walk a mile in my shoes
I know the one thing that counts
I got the right
To make up my mind
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
We're marching for love
So turn up the drum
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
Yeah, we must have different shoes on
We're marching to a different beat
Yeah!
So baby put your boots on
Keep marching to a different beat
Yeah
Never in the slow lane
Cause I like it fast
No time you waste
So I keep our feet on the gas
(I live it up, live it up)
(Live it up, live it up, live it up)
I might be young
I know who I am
So I don't follow like a marching band
So give it up
(Give it up, give it up)
(Give it up, give it up, give it up)
Uh-oh, now there you go
Out of your comfort zone
Cause I'm breaking out
I'm breaking down, down, down, down
Ain't got nothing to prove
Walk a mile in my shoes
I know the one thing that counts
I got the right
To make up my mind
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
We're marching for love
So turn up the drum
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
Yeah, we must have different shoes on
We're marching to a different beat
Yeah!
So baby put your boots on
Keep marching to a different beat
Yeah
I got my head up
Shoulders back
I'm doing me
So they can see
I'm marching to a different beat
I take a look in the mirror
And I like what I see
So baby, I keep marching
To a different beat
I got the right
To make up my mind
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
We're marching so loud
So turn up the drum
Say it loud and clear
For the whole wide world to hear
Yeah, we must have different shoes on
We're marching to a different beat

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad
Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
[Chorus:]
That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Alright, alright
Yeah
I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends
I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see
[Chorus]
Give me an A (always give me what I want)
Give me a V (be very very good to me)
R (are you gonna treat me right)
I (I can put up a fight)
Give me an L (let me hear you scream loud)
One, two, three, four
Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
[Chorus]
Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho

When do you think they'll finally see

So, you see, there's no point in underestimating me
Lock up all your thoughts and throw away the key
No, I don't want to hear it 'cause your, no, it doesn't bother me
Now I'm done with all your negativity
And I'm gonna let it wash all over me
I'll be stronger than your words, baby, I'm harder

She ain't waiting for luck, no wishful thinker,
She's gonna do it on her own

Today was the worst day, I went through hell
I wish I could remove it from my mind
Two months away from you but I couldn't tell
I thought that everything was gonna be just fine
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
It smelt like cheap perfume and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
And now you're somewhere out there with a
bitch slut psycho babe
I hate you why are guys so lame
Everything I gave you I want everything back but you
My friends tried to tell me all along
That you weren't the right one for me
My friends tried to tell me to be strong
I bet you didn't think that I would see
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
I wanna see you cry like I did a thousand times
Yeah you're losing me, you're losing me now
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
It smelt like cheap perfume and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you
I wish I could remove it from my mind
Two months away from you but I couldn't tell
I thought that everything was gonna be just fine
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
It smelt like cheap perfume and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
And now you're somewhere out there with a
bitch slut psycho babe
I hate you why are guys so lame
Everything I gave you I want everything back but you
My friends tried to tell me all along
That you weren't the right one for me
My friends tried to tell me to be strong
I bet you didn't think that I would see
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
I wanna see you cry like I did a thousand times
Yeah you're losing me, you're losing me now
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
The postcard that you wrote with a stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
It smelt like cheap perfume and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote
[Chorus]
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you
I think we're done. I busted out my best song

It's 2 AM in your car
Windows down, you pass my street, the memories start
You say it's in the past, you drive straight ahead
You're thinking that I hate you now
'Cause you still don't know what I never said
I wish you would come back,
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did.
And I wish you knew that I'll never forget you as long as I live.
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
It's 2 AM in my room.
Headlights pass the window pane, I think of you.
We're a crooked love in a straight line down.
Makes you wanna run and hide
Then it makes you turn right back around
I wish you would come back,
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did.
I wish you knew that I'll never forget you as long as I live.
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for.
And I wish you knew that I miss you too much to be mad anymore
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish.
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything and nothing
This mad mad love makes you come running
To stand back where you stood
I wish you would, I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish...
2 AM, here we are
See your face, hear my voice in the dark
We're a crooked love in a straight line down
Makes you wanna run and hide
But it made us turn right back around
I wish you would come back
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did
I wish you knew that I'll never forget you as long as I live.
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
I wish you would come back,
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did.
And I wish you knew that I'll never forget you as long as I live.
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
I wish we could go back
And remember what we were fighting for.
And I wish you knew that I miss you too much to be mad anymore.
And I wish you were right here, right now, it's all good.
I wish you would
You always knew how to push my buttons
You give me everything and nothing
This mad mad love makes you come running
To stand back where you stood
I wish you would, I wish you would
I wish you would, I wish you would
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish
I, I, I, I, I, I wish, I wish you would

Directions:
Tamsin won last round, so comment if you want to go against her.
You start off(unless Tamsin is reading this right now) and you both keep posting lyrics. Wait for the other to submit theirs before doing yours.
Keep going until you think you've gotten a winner.
The winner is the person who posts the best song, or fastest I don't know.
The person who wins must find someone to vs in the next round.
The judge is me- non-biased as I listen to literally all music and love it all. also this means I will not participate in battles.
Have fun!
