lyrics

Raised By Nerds the Blibbering Humdingers capo2

Am C/G F E7 Am G E7
Wore my batman costume -ev’ry day -for a couple of years,
Put my tiny hands on my baby head makin’ yoda ears

Dm E7
speaking klingon by the age of three,
F E
I’ll show you Pete Jackson’s cameo in Bree

Am G
Raised By Nerds! And we’re smart and proud!
Raised By Nerds! And we’ll shout it loud(ly)!
Am G E7
Raised By Nerds! not part of your crowd....,
and we don’t care…Hey! Hey! Hey!
Am C/G F E7
raised by Nerds! Hey! Hey! Hey! Raised by nerds!

In our dungeon crawl, I'm outa luck, my magic missiles are hurled.
Made a working TARDIS and a Portal Gun in my minecraft world.
Modded Nerf guns with the steampunk brass,
Watching John Green for my History class!
CH
Go to cons with a LARP foam master sword strapped to my pack,
I'd sacrifice goats to the Elder gods to bring Firefly back
Spilled blue milk on the kitchen floor
Playin Magic cards at the Pennsic War,
CH
In my yearbook pic, wore my cool top hat and my slytherin pride
I can quote all the lines from the Holy Grail and the Princess Bride. (why do you always skip that part???)
Ewok song- we know the words.
thats because we're the best of nerds
CH
Am G Am G Am G F F# G
