Rivers Cuomo
The Underdogs
[Verse 1]
Everything we fight for seems to get shot down
No one seems to notice, it's like we ain't around
They tear us into pieces and throw us here and there
No one knows how much we care
So much pain, so many tears, so much hurt
When we gonna learn?
Oh, we've got to give our best, and push until we break on through
[Chorus]
We're shootin' straight for the top
Our engine never will stop
This is our destiny
Nothing's too good to be
We know the score, we're gonna break down the door
You wished you were at lunch, this time we've got a hunch
We're the underdogs
[Verse 2]
The people that we trusted really let us down
Everybody wants to fly and never touch the ground
They treat us like we're pieces in a parlor game
Leaving us to take the blame but we don't care
We don't mind, we won't come when they call, oh
We're taking what they give, cause we can rise above it all
[Chorus]
We're shootin' straight for the top
Our engine never will stop
This is our destiny
Nothing's too good to be
We know the score we're gonna break down the door
You wished you were at lunch, this time we've got a hunch
We're the underdogs
[Bridge]
Feeling the pain
Hearing their names
We struggle to, we are broken
For all this hurt, we thank you
[Chorus]
We're shootin' straight for the top
Our engine never will stop
This is our destiny
Nothing's too good to be
We know the score we're gonna break down your door
You wished you were at lunch, this time we've got a hunch
We're the underdogs
