team player - gaby alter, tommy newman & mark allen lyrics

[jake]
that used to be me on the field
running for an end zone catch
i had the speed and sk!ll no one could match
on every play
i’d be open wide, they’d pass it to me
i dive in and once more save the day

but they said i was no team player
’cause i didn’t stick to all the plans
too much of an extreme player
i didn’t follow their commands
who cares if you’re a team player
when you’ve got magnets in your hands?

[commentator, spoken]
it’s halftime, ladies and gents. and now would be a good time to visit the concession stand as the marching beavers take the field

(instrumental)

[jake]
i showed off a lot—so what?
i had to work twice as hard
to prove to the recruiters i was good
that i was great
everyone else on the team had money
i had to win the scholarship to stay
[jake, +band geeks]
no, i couldn’t be a team player
or i couldn’t be a college grad
i had to be the supreme player
it was the one chance that i had
no, i couldn’t be a team player
or i’d end up like my mom and dad

stuck inside this town
living on minimum wage
or running away to nowhere
the whole world’s a cage
when you can’t afford your freedom
you pay the price everyday
i had the chance to get out, but i threw it all away
why’d i let ’em get to me?
i threw it all away

[band geeks, (jake)]
look at you, so tough
you know you’ll never be good enough
trying to be a rising star
but everyone sees just what you are (why’d i let ’em get to me?)
look at you, so tough
you know you’ll never be good enough (why’d i let ’em get to me?)
trying to be a rising star
but everyone sees just what you are
(drum solo)

[band geeks]
team player

[jake, +band geeks
no, i could never learn to be a team player
no better than my family, now
team player
i’ll be here for eternity
