Lyrics

I like things that are so good. you are so so good.

I appreciate things of high quality. You, specifically, are exceptionally good.

I like you. but I am the underdog, I am the last in line.

I have feelings for you, but I perceive myself as the underdog, always coming last in line.

Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me.

Do not become my adversary, and please do not stay behind me in a negative way.

Freezing, boring, wondering where I'll be on my birthday.

Feeling cold and bored, I ponder where I'll find myself on my birthday.

You kissed me in a dream last night, how could I

You kissed me in a dream, a moment that lingers, though I can't be sure of its significance because I see myself as the underdog.

I wouldn't know, 'cause I am the underdog.

I am uncertain about the dream's meaning because I perceive myself as the underdog.

I am the last in line.

Emphasizing again that I am accustomed to being last in line, reinforcing the underdog identity.

Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me.

A repetition of the plea not to become an adversary or stand negatively behind me.

Will you be my friend?

Asking for friendship, a desire for a positive connection.

Now I understand, that I more than like you.

Realizing a deeper affection, moving beyond mere liking, and understanding the emotions better.

I am the underdog I am the last in line.

Reiteration of the underdog status, always finding myself last in line.

Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me.

Repeating the request not to be an enemy or stand negatively behind me.

Lalala da-dah

An interlude with nonspecific vocalizations, perhaps reflecting emotional nuances.

I am the underdog. I am the last in line.

Reaffirming the underdog identity, emphasizing once again the last-in-line position.

Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me.

Repetition of the plea to avoid being an enemy or standing negatively behind me.

I am the underdog. I am the last in line.

Restating the underdog status, reinforcing the sense of consistently being last in line.

Don't be the enemy, don't be the enemy.

A plea not to be an adversary, repeated for emphasis.

Hmmmmmm

An extended vocalization, possibly expressing a contemplative or emotional state.

I like things that are so good, you are so so good.

Reiteration of the appreciation for things of high quality, emphasizing the exceptional nature of the person being addressed.
