Lyrics:

La la, la la
You were the popular one, the popular chick
It is what it is, now Im popular-ish

Standing on the field with your pretty pompoms
Now youre working at the movies selling popular corn
I could have been a mess but I never went wrong
Cause Im putting down my story in a popular song
Ahh,I said Im putting down my story in a popular song

My problem, I never was a model,
I never was a scholar,but you were always popular

You were singing all the songs I dont know
Now youre in the front row
Cause my song is popular

Popular, I know about popular
Its not about who you are or your fancy car
Youre only ever who you were
Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do, is be true to you
Thats all you ever need to know

So catch up,cause you got an awful long way to go
So catch up,cause you got an awful long way to go

Always on the lookout for someone to hate,
Picking on me like a dinner plate
You hid during classes and in between them
Dunk me in the toilets now it's you that cleans them

You tried to make me feel bad with the things you do
It aint so funny when the jokes on you
Ooh, the jokes on you
Got everyone laughing, got everyone clapping, asking
How come you look so cool?
Cause thats the only thing that I learned at school, boy
Uh huh, I said thats the only thing that I learned at school

My problem, I never was a model,
I never was a scholar,
You were always popular,
You were singing, all the songs I dont know
Now youre in the front row
Cause my song is popular
Popular, I know about popular
Its not about who you are or your fancy car
Youre only ever who you were
Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do, is be true to you, that's all you ever need to know
So catch up, cause you got an awful long way to go
So catch up, cause you got an awful long way to go

All you ever need to know
Youre only ever who you were
All you ever need to know
Youre only ever who you were
All you ever need to know

Popular, I know about popular
Its not about who you are or your fancy car
Youre only ever who you were

Popular, I know about popular
Its not about who you are or your fancy car
Youre only ever who you were
Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do, is be true to you.
That's all you ever need to know

All you ever need to know
