Written for Project For Awesome 2011. Eff Yeah Nerdfighters!

lyrics

I know I sing a lot
About how you can be whoever whomever whatever you want to be
I know I sing a lot
About how to do this creatively

And I know I sing a lot
About hard work and practicing
That’s what I sing
A lot

I know I talk a lot
About Hat Time and all that timing stuff
I know I talk a lot
About how you shouldn’t worry if you’re enough

I know I talk a lot
About finding ways to rock
And yes I talk
A lot

What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be awesome
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be you
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget that the rest of us are here to help you too
And do what Nerdfighters do

Nerdfighters don’t fight nerds
We fight worldsuck
Amidst the complexity of truth
And if I were rain, I’d be the healing kind
That buffs your party with plus two
In tenacity, four in rhythm
And five
In fighting off the parts of the world
That tell you you can’t be the person that you want to
‘Cause no matter what you do
And there’ll be a lot of ways that you’ll have to choose what you do
You can still be true
To the person that you want to be
And you can do it creatively
And what I mean to say is this
What I mean to say is we
We can do it creatively.

I know my videos
Are shot with a camera that’s now become obsolete
I know my audio has
Got this fuzz in the background that I can’t delete
But I know you’re listening
And learning just as much from me
as I have learned
From you

Because this community
Can accomplish just about anything that it wants to do
And make opportunities
For every one of us and me and you
And the rest of the world
And that’s the best thing
For the rest of the world
Too

What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be awesome
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be you
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget that the rest of us are here to help you too
And do what Nerdfighters do

Nerdfighters don’t fight nerds
We fight worldsuck
Amidst the complexity of truth
And if I were rain, I’d be the healing kind
That buffs your party with plus two
In tenacity, four in rhythm
And five
In clapping along

Now sing with me

Eff yeah nerdfighters
Eff yeah nerdfighters

I know I sing a lot
But now I get to sing a lot with you
And when this song is done
Who knows what else we’re gonna do
We’ll spread some awesome
Any way we can because you know one thing is true
Spreading awesome is what Nerdfighters do

So what I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be awesome
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget to be you
What I mean to say is this
Don’t forget that the rest of us are here to help you too
And do what Nerdfighters do

Because spreading awesome is what Nerdfighters do

Eff yeah nerdfighters
