Shut up and Cheer

In a room full of people

Who have clearly made bad choices

I may be the stupidest one here

Cause having heard the stories

And knowing all the drama

I still said I'd join the murder squad this year

I weighed the good and sacrifice

I swore that lightning won't strike twice

And surely this is all under control

This school costs more than I can say

They straight up comped me 60K

But also I'm afraid I sold my soul

So I can say no, this shit is insane

Or I can keep my cool and stay in my lane

And put my pom-poms up

Oh I 'ra, ra, ra' and disappear

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer

I got that big smile on

They won't even know that I am here

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer, and back away

In a world where the wrong kids

Keep getting all the nice things

I have worked so hard for so much less

So then maybe I'm a Titan

Or so maybe I'm a Tiger

I think maybe every high school is a mess

You want a little structure

You just want a smaller class size

And somehow you have ended up in hell

If everyone seems crazy

Maybe I'm the one who's crazy

And all of them are doing really well

So I can run home and call it a day

Or say these goddamn girls won't get in my way

And put my pom-poms up

Oh I 'ra, ra, ra' and disappear

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer

I got that big smile on

They won't even know that I am here

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer and back away

Shut up and cheer and back away

Complicated, god I know it

I'm afraid but I won't show it

I can pray that they'll outgrow it

Got this shot now I won't blow it

So put my pom-poms up

Oh I 'ra, ra, ra' and disappear

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer

I got that big smile on

They won't even know that I am here

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and -

If it's the best you'll get

Take a chance and make it through the year

Get in the clear

Get in the clear

And say that life's not fair

Oh I've so been there

So get in gear

Shut up and cheer

Shut up and cheer and back away

Shut up and cheer

Ready? Okay!
