I was always picked last for teams
I wore my sister´s jeans
I was a loser kid
And the teachers didn´t care
They just left me standin´ there

I don´t know what I did

And since then (Since then)
How the tides have turned

´Cause I used to be the loser kid
I´m always runnin´ away, I´m here
And no one took the time to know me
The "Kick Me" sign was always on me
Now everybody wants to know
What I do and where I go
At least I know they won´t forget me
´Cause I live with Miss McKenzie

And now it´s all history
And I put it all behind me
I look at what I´ve become
Oh, I get recognised in the street

And everyone I meet
Remembers the news I´ve made

Since then (Since then)
How the tides have turned

´Cause I used to be the loser kid
I´m always runnin´ away, I´m here
And no one took the time to know me
The "Kick Me" sign was always on me
Now everybody wants to know
What I do and where I go
At least I know they won´t forget me
´Cause I live with Miss McKenzie

When I see the way you look at me
It takes me back to how it used to be
Still it´s clear, the way you locked that classroom door

And whispered in my ear, "You´re what I go to school for
You are the one I go to school for," yeah

´Cause I used to be the loser kid (Yeah)
I´m always runnin´ away, I´m here
And no one took the time to know me
The "Kick Me" sign was always on me
Now everybody wants to know
What I do and where I go
At least I know they won´t forget me
´Cause I live with Miss McKenzie
´Cause I used to be the loser kid (Yeah)
I´m always runnin´ away, I´m here
And no one took the time to know me
The "Kick Me" sign was always on me
Now everybody wants to know
What I do and where I go

At least I know they won´t forget me
´Cause I live with Miss McKenzie
