Cheerleader

Katy Perry · Other Songs - Katy Perry

There is a girl in high school

She thinks she's more better than me

I'll show her what she's made of

She'll be so under my knee

I'll show her how I'm like



She's just a cheerleader

She's a girl I never trust

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd be a bust

Just a cheerleader

I never wanna be this way

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd see this day

Cheerleader



I'm just a regular teenage girl

Not to be crazy or anything

I'm hurrying to her

Who am I to ring

I'll show her how I'm like



She's just a cheerleader

She's a girl I never trust

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd be a bust

Just a cheerleader

I never wanna be this way

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd see this day

Cheerleader



I'll show her how I'm like

She's just a cheerleader

She's a girl I never trust

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd be a bust

Just a cheerleader

I never wanna be this way

A mean cheerleader

I never thought I'd see this day
