lyrics

I struck out at the game and that’s the way that it goes
You call me loser but what the hell do you know?
So what if I missed my shot there’s no reason to shout
Nobody’s perfect, even mighty Casey struck out

I don't care what you say, I won't play your stupid games
Don't tell me how it's gonna be
I don't care who you are, I am gonna be a star
So get the hell outta my way

I struck out at the game and that's the way that it goes
You call me loser but yeah, what the hell do you know
You can't buy what I got, it all comes natural to me
Get to the back of the line, I'm heading for the top

I don't care what you say, I won't play your stupid games
Don't tell me how it's gonna be
I don't care who you are, I am gonna be a star
So get the hell outta my way

I'm not a little boy anymore, even the blind can see
In this world without love, let's build a place for you and me

I don't care what you say, I won't play your stupid games
Don't tell me how it's gonna be
I don't care who you are, I am gonna be a star
So get the hell outta my way
