you had to pick on me
Singer:kennon, matt
he hid behind his lunchbox
everyday at that bus stop
where some big ole boys got their kicks
he was scared as hell of that recess bell
that playground was more like a battlefield
and he knew he'd get himself killed
with black in his eye and blood in his mouth
is we could've been teammates
you could've made a difference
you should've just let me be
but no. you had to pick on me
she heard them laughin' 'bout the way she looked
in the hallway at the high school she hid behind her books
everyday in that lunchroom
she stared in that mirror
tryin' to be pretty became a disease
the diary she kept underneath her bed
shared the same limousine
you should've just let me be
but no. you had to pick on me
it's time to make a stand
cause it's gotten outta hand
there should never have to be
another child's headstone
that might as well read. you had to pick on me
