Wonderfully Odd

[Verse 1]
You alphabetize your cereal
I name the spoons and give them jobs
You wear your lucky jacket backward
I practice speeches to my socks

Your laugh arrives a beat too early
My elbows have their own parade
We bring our odd little inventions
And make a better mess that way

[Pre-Chorus]
Quit trimming every crooked edge
To fit somebody else's frame
The parts you hide behind your teeth
Are calling out your name

[Chorus]
Get weird, get loud, take up the room
Bring your mismatched shoes and your homemade tune
If your mind takes turns no map can chart
Good—let it drive, let it tear up the start
Get weird, get proud, let the whole thing show
Your strange is the spark that the rest of us know
No copy, no mold, no need to explain
We’re wonderfully odd—and we’re staying that way!

[Verse 2]
You keep a pebble from a bus stop
I give my houseplants middle names
You fold your napkin into creatures
I make up rules for made-up games

The room gets brighter when you stop
Apologizing for your shape
So bring the facts that sound unlikely
And all the plans you’ll rearrange

[Pre-Chorus]
Quit sanding down your favorite corners
Quit asking who said you could
The things that make you hard to label
Might be what makes you good

[Chorus]
Get weird, get loud, take up the room
Bring your mismatched shoes and your homemade tune
If your mind takes turns no map can chart
Good—let it drive, let it tear up the start
Get weird, get proud, let the whole thing show
Your strange is the spark that the rest of us know
No copy, no mold, no need to explain
We’re wonderfully odd—and we’re staying that way!

[Bridge]
You can keep your tiny rituals
Your brilliant, baffling point of view
I’ll save a seat beside the loud ones
There’s room for me, and room for you

[Breakdown]
Too odd? (Too odd!)
Too much? (Too much!)
That’s our kind of just enough!

[Final Chorus]
Get weird, get loud, take up the room
Bring your mismatched shoes and your homemade tune
If your mind takes turns no map can chart
Good—let it drive, let it tear up the start
Get weird, get proud, let the whole thing show
Your strange is the spark that the rest of us know
No copy, no mold, no need to explain
We’re wonderfully odd—and we’re staying that way!

[Outro]
No copy, no mold—
We’re staying that way!
