Rankers & Rotters

Rankers & Rotters - Dave Hause

We're the ones

With the dirty fingernails

Crawling to the surface

Though we're destined to fail

The ones screaming

Right through the pauses

Unfamiliar faces

With the unsexy causes

And they're right

Second rate

But not alone ooh-oh

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-breakers

'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

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-breakers

'Cause this one's for

Ones who stay

The ones who stay

Ones who stay

We won't back down

We won't back down

We won't back down

We won't back down

We won't back down

Battered but proud

We won't back down

We won't back down

Battered but proud

We won't back down
