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 sitting there,

I don't know what I did..

But since then.. How the tide's have turned!

(Chorus)

'Cause I used to be the loser kid,

Who always ran away and hid,

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,

Atleast I know they won't forget me,

'Cause I live with Miss Mackenzie.

Now it's all history,

And I've put it all behind me,

Look at what I've become,

Oh! I get recognised in the street,

And everyone I meet,

Remembers the news I've made

But since then.. How the tide's have turned!

(Chorus)

'Cause I used to be the loser kid,

Who always ran away and hid,

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,

Atleast I know they won't forget me,

'Cause I live with Miss Mackenzie.

And then I see,

The way you look at me,

Takes me back to how it used to be,

Seems clear, the way you locked the classroom door,

And whispered in my ear;

"You're what I go to school for,

You are.. what I go to school for!"

(Chorus)

'Cause I used to be the loser kid,

Who always ran away and hid,

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,

Atleast I know they won't forget me,

'Cause I live with Miss Mackenzie.

(Chorus)

'Cause I used to be the loser kid,

Who always ran away and hid,

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,

Atleast I know they won't forget me,

'Cause I live with Miss Mackenzie.

(Mix of Chorus)

'Cause I used to be...

No one took the time to know me...

'Cause I used to be...

'Cause I used to be...

No one took the time to know me...

'Cause I used to be...
