UPSAHL - The Other Team

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1994127
Verse 1
I met a boy who was sweet like cherry pie
He's a new type of a picture perfect guy
Waved him down from the corner of fifth avenue
He waved back, but turns out I was not the one that he was waving to

Pre-Chorus
I know he's right for me
But I'm not right for him
And if I try to play along, don't think I'll ever win

Chorus
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
It's such a shame
I'm not even in the game

Verse 2
I met a boy who seems too good to be true
Dirty blonde locks, and his eyes are a sparkly blue
Gave him a smile, and he turned to walk my way
But then he walked right past me towards another man
He didn't notice me

Chorus
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
It's such a shame
I'm not even in the game

Bridge
I guess I have a thing for guys that aren't in my own league
The ones I know
They don't know shit
They always quit
They can't commit
They just know how to leave

Chorus
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
It's such a shame
I'm not even in the game
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
Swinging, swinging, swinging for the other team
It's such a shame
I'm not even in the game
