Lyrics: Brooke Maxwell/Jacob Richmond
Music: Brooke Maxwell/Jacob Richmond
No nooo!!!
What the world needs is people like me, to keep it all spinning around
I’m the mover, I’m the shaker, I’m the headline-maker
I get up
I get up
And no one’s gonna keep me down
Okay, it’s clear I’m the top of this class
These folks here, well, they pump the gas
Fetch me a coffee, shine me shoes
Some of us are winners, some were born to lose
You got the sandwich artist
The security guard
The Walmart-greeter with an overdrawn credit card
He smokes ganja, ooh it’s so “groovy”
To stay at home and watch a transformer movie
She servers me coke and a medium fries
And no thanks
I don’t want it supervised
‘Cause that’s low-class
Diabetes in a cup
Keep you head down and things will look up
What the world needs is the people like me, to keep it all spinning around
I’m the mover, I’m the shaker, I’m the headline-maker
I get up
I get up
And no one’s gonna keep me down
Seriously???
This one here, he’s rarein’ to fail
He’ll rob a 7-11 and go straight to jail
Maybe steal hubcaps, maybe steal booze
Expressing himself with his homemade tattoos
Soccer mom
Minivan
Four little brats
No steady man
Do we really need another organ donor
Maybe that was a little harsh
LOVE YOU!
Pokemon
Spiderman
This kid doesn’t have an attention span
And what’s he gonna do, solve a Rubik’s cube
How longs he got if we feed him through a tube
What the world needs is people like me, to keep it all spinning around
I’m the mover, I’m the shaker, I’m the headline-maker
I get up
I get up
And no one’s gonna keep me down
And as we move through life, to find our place in the crowd
(Some don’t make the cut, that’s crystal clear-o)
Oh yes, oh yes!!
Oh, isn’t someone keeping score
I’ve gotta sat this out loud
I mean, do we really need another zero??
Or zero, or zero, or zero, or zero
Add’em all up and you’ll still get zero
What you really need is a further muckin’ hero!!!
(And oh oh)
He’ll never learn to read
(And oh oh)
He’s never gonna breed
(And oh oh)
Going to jail guaranteed
And she’s a freaky monster
(Yes, there’s a problem)
I’m the solution
Darwin had a theory called
“Evolution”
He put it into words, but it’s plain to see
We need a little less of them
A little more of me
Me———
A little more MEEE!!!
me me me me me me me me MEEE
ME MEE
A little more MEEE
I get up
I GET UP
And no one gonna keep me down
DOOWN !!
