He don’t mind waking up in the morning
It’s just the time in between that he hates
He ain’t got no one to trade jokes with
He just watches the clock and he waits
He gets left out of tag during recess
He’s got the monkey bars all to himself
He ain’t got no one to trade lunches with
And it’s a damn shame
Cause there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid, no
He pretends not to hear as they taunt him
Cause his voice always cracks when he speaks
He nervously laughs as he holds back tears
And it ain’t fair
Cause there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid, no
His parents tell him that it’s gonna get better
Cause they’re supposed to
Let me tell you how I made it better
I stood up, I stood up
Cause there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid
No there ain’t no love for the new kid, no, yeah
He don’t wanna be the new kid no more
He don’t wanna be the new kid no more
He ain’t gonna be the new kid no more
He shouldn’t have to
