It Roars

I'm sixteen living in paradise
With the lions and birds and stuff
But I'm sixteen and it's not enough

I'm alone, I mean, there's mom and dad
And the animals we observe
But frankly they're all on my last nerves

Nobody on the savanna understands
None of my closest friends even has hands
I've got dreams exciting me
Like, a fire igniting me
I tried to confide in my lions
But they keep biting me

Did you ever get a feeling
Everybody else is happy
Everybody else has friends
And they're better friends than yours

It's a very recent feeling
But it's running through my body
And it roars
It roars

Bindi, we've lost our funding
And we're going to have to back to the US

Maybe I can meet an obese person

It's going be a difficult adjustment
You'll have to go to a real school

Mom, I would love that, let's all try something new
We live in a tent
And adventure is what we do

True

I've got no time to cry
I got new things to try
Like, high school, and skateboards and rapping
And Starbucks Venti Chai

Did you ever get a feeling
That a whole new world is waiting
Bringing happiness and friends
To the brave girl who explores
It's a scary kind of feeling, but it's so exhilarating

How it roars
It roars
It roars

Okay, maybe they didn't see me
Staring at their little screens
Plus, it's crowded
With all those teens
Hi, teens!

Unsubscribe

They're tough. Challenge accepted
I'm trying to break into a pack
Like baboons, it's natural they attack
I got to fight for the right to belong, to fit in

Somebody doesn't fit

They want to be included, like me
So eventually, I'll win

New kid, ignore her!

I'll win
(Just ignore her!)

Do you ever get a feeling?

Everybody wants connection
Yes, I know they have their friends,
but what is one friend more

No!

'Cause I know, I know this feeling

We know this feeling

So I brush off their rejection
At our core

Just ignore her

You can't ignore

Just ignore her

The roar! (Roar. Roar. Roar. Roar.)

Welcome to North Shore High!
