Lyrics The New Kid - Old 97's

The New Kid

the new kid he’s got money
the money i deserve
i should be rolling in it
i’ve been a working stiff
as for the justice
no one knows where it went
i’m gonna toil away
until my judgement day
i will be rewarded for the good things i did
believe me every year
there is another one here
don’t you see i used to be the new kid?
i am sorry to say, you’ll get carried away
oh you will be replaced
you will be replaced
i’ll tell you again
don’t get too settled in
you will be replaced
you will be replaced
the new kid he’s got my girl
the girl i used to have
he’s got the looks
you know, got them from his dad
i should be kissin that girl
we should be so in love
there is no justice
there’s just dark stars above
i’m gonna toil away
until my judgement day
i will be rewarded for the good things i did
believe me every year, there is another one here
don’t you see i used to be the new kid?
believe me every year
there is another one here
don’t you see i used to be the new kid?
i am sorry to say
you’ll get carried away
oh you will be replaced
you will be replaced
i’ll tell you again
don’t get too settled in
oh you will be replaced
you will be replaced
by the new kid
by the new kid
by the new kid
by the new kid
