Rankers & Rotters - Dave Hause

We’re the ones with the dirty fingernails

Crawling to the surface though we’re destined to fail

We’re the ones screaming right through the pauses

Unfamiliar faces with the unsexy causes

And they’re right, we’re second rate, but not alone, ooh-oh

With sunspots in our eyes, our shoes are filled with stones

They’re running scared, afraid of what we’ll say, ooh-oh

But damn the «make or break"-ers cause this one’s for the ones who stay

The ones who stay

We’re the ones with the dirty fingernails

Crawling to the surface though we’re destined to fail

We’re the ones screaming right through the pauses

Unfamiliar faces with the unsexy causes

And they’re right, we’re second rate, but not alone, ooh-oh

With sunspots in our eyes, our shoes are filled with stones

They’re running scared, afraid of what we’ll say, ooh-oh

But damn the «make or break"-ers cause this one’s for the ones who stay

The ones who stay

We won’t back down

(Battered but proud)
