I remember tryin' to talk to you in high school
Couldn't even get a look cause you were too cool
But now we're older and we're playin' by the new rules
We lived and learned

Cause as time moves on
We find we belong
And then in the end

We were the ones you used to make fun of
We stayed at home alone instead of falling in love
We never got the chance to be prom king
We didn't even dance but here's the thing...

We got the cars
We got the money
We need some sun but I'm tellin' you honey...
That the geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
(The geeks will inherit the earth)
The geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
(The geeks will inherit the earth)

Everybody tries to tell you that you're different
So you run away and wonder if it makes sense
But the day will come when you will get a new chance
The tables turn
And you know you will be
Much more than they see
In time you'll find

We were the ones you used to make fun of
We stayed at home alone instead of falling in love
We never got the chance to be prom king
We didn't even dance but here's the thing...

We got the cars
We got the money
We need some sun but I'm tellin' you honey...
That the geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
(The geeks will inherit the earth)
The geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
(The geeks will inherit the earth)

We were the ones you used to make fun of
We stayed at home alone instead of falling in love
We never got the chance to be prom king
We didn't even dance but here's the thing...

We got the cars
We got the money
We need some sun but I'm tellin' you honey...
That the geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
(The geeks will inherit the earth)
The geeks will, geeks will, we will inherit the earth
