Last one picked lyrics from the musical Whoop-de-doo?

Answer 1

Clink a glass and wipe your eye

to my bygone days at hill-murray high

And the class I learned to dread

the ego-buster they call phy ed

Basketball baseball football stickball

volleyball dodgeball tetherball Kickball

playing hell was but worst of all

was the ritual that came first of all

last one picked, non-athletic

last one picked, at sports I was pathetic

other kids could tumble and run,

but my coordination was totally un

six guys left, stomach sinking

three guys left, my self-esteem was shrinking

felt so ashamed I could've cried

nobody wanted me on their side

how many notes have I forged to say,

please excuse max from gym today,

he wrenched his back

his colons spastic

he's got meningitis and his kneecaps are plastic

I was the last one picked, rejected by the rabble

Last one picked I could beat em' all at Scrabble

My brains didn't do me a bit of good

The bottom of the barrel was wear I stood

But time went by, and I met you

And learned a team could consist of two

The way I am is a-okay

and who cares about kids games anyway

last one picked the past is past now

last one picked at last im not the last now

I'm first draft pick on a winning team

As I'd always dreamed I'd be

Imagine my surprise, when out of all those other guys

You picked me.
