I never had the right pair of jeans
And my Payless kicks weren't always clean
Couldn't break it down or play it tough
Just a kid in cla**, wasn't that enough
Just a kid in cla** wasn't that enough
Got kicked around, but I'm older now
Put your hands
Up if you've ever had to laugh it off
Turn and shrug your shoulders, put your hands
Up if you're nuts and the party's loud
Say "nobody's gonna make me take 'em down," put 'em
Up for the nights when you're all alone in a crowd
And you've got nothing to go home to
If you're dreaming of love
Put your hands up
Never figured out what the cool boys knew
Made them look so tall, like they had a clue
Like they'd seen it all by age 13
Couldn't get the girl, so I quit the scene
Couldn't get the girl, so I quit the scene
If you're dorky and lame and tired of names
Put your hands
Up if you've ever had to laugh it off
Turn and shrug your shoulders, put your hands
Up if you're nuts and the party's loud
Say "nobody's gonna make me take 'em down," put 'em
Up for the nights when you're all alone in a crowd
And you've got nothing to go home to
If you're dreaming of love
Put your hands up
We'll keep our heads high when we see them
They didn't need us, it's their loss
Growing up's bitter sweet
But you'll forgive and forget when you're their boss
If you've never had the right pair of jeans
And your payless kicks aren't always clean
If you can't break dance or play it tough
Touch the sky with me, yeah that's enough
Touch the sky with me
Put your hands up
If you've ever had to laugh it off
Turn and shrug your shoulders, put your hands
Up if you're nuts, wave them all around
Nobody's ever gonna make you take them down," put 'em
Up for the nights when you're all alone in a crowd
And you've got nothing to go home to
If you're dreaming of love
Put your hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up
