Lyrics

Second Place

In the thick of it
A despicable twist
My rival on the ridge

Clutch my butter knife
My one chance at life
Guess I'm up for one last fight

I fought, I fought so hard
For second place, for second place
I fought, I fought so hard (so hard), so hard

I fought, I fought so hard (so hard)
For second place, for second place
I fought, I fought so hard (so hard), so hard

Crawl across the line
I made it just in time
Then I look up to see their face so debonair
(Oh no)

I fought, I fought so hard
For second place, for second place
I fought, I fought so hard (so hard), so hard

I fought, I fought so hard (so hard)
For second place, for second place
I fought, I fought so hard (so hard), so hard
