The only time I’ve been nervous at school was like maybe
If I was trying something new like a new trend or something whatever
And the way I got over that was just not really caring
Not really looking like spying on.. stalking people (gasp)
What do they think
No
It’s the first day of school
Hey
But I don’t know what to do
Stepping off the bus
Butterflies in my tum
Hey I got a question
Will you be my best friend
Where’d you get your fit
I know we just met
But I really like your style
Maybe they will stay a while
I’m feeling nervous the first day of school
Are you feeling nervous the first day of school
I’m feeling nervous how you keep it cool
Are you feeling nervous the first day of school
It’s the first day of school
But I don’t know what to do
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Stepping into lunch
Sipping my fruit punch
It’s about to go down
He/him is my pronoun
Do you like my fresh tee
It’s got Naruto on it
You could be my bestie
Dattebayo we homies
I’m feeling nervous the first day of school
Are you feeling nervous the first day of school
I’m feeling nervous how you keep it cool
Are you feeling nervous the first day of school
It’s the first day of school
But I don’t know what to do
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
