lyrics

Ain't gonna give you this power over me
So blind and ignorant, just let me be
Things will change, next time, you'll see
Call me names and push me down
The other people don't make a sound
I'll be ready, next time you, come around

I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
This time you're gonna pay
And I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
Next time you're in my way
You're gonna feel every ounce of pain you've caused
Can you hear the applause
I won't hold back, you're a bully no more today

Control and power are what you crave
This kind of hate makes you it's slave
Come back around and I will make you pay
I'll give the chance you never gave before
To turn around and walk away
Or these two fists won't take it laying down no more

I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
This time you're gonna pay
And I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
Next time you're in my way
You're gonna feel every ounce of pain you've caused
Can you hear the applause
I won't hold back, you're a bully no more today

I'm a nerd, and I'm weird
I'm a dork, I'm a queer
I'm a bitch, and a sissy
I'm retarded, and a pussy

I'm whatever you may call me
I'm whatever you may fear
But I cannot be defeated
As long as I'm still standing here

I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
This time you're gonna pay
And I'll stand up (you're a bully)
Stand up (you're a bully)
Next time you're in my way
You're gonna feel every ounce of pain you've caused
Can you hear the applause
I won't hold back, you're a bully no more today

I'll stand up (you're a bully)
