Bm                          A
We heard you want to get together
Bm                               A
We heard you want to rock the school
Bm                               A
We thought of something that is better
Bm                              A
Something that changes all the rules
Bm                         A
Why pretend we're all the same
Bm                      A
When some of us shine brighter?
Bm                             A
Here's a chance to find your flame
Bm                    A
Are you a loser or a fighter?

Fm           D#
Me and you, you and me
A             Bm
Why don't we see who is better?
Fm        D#        A            Bm
We don't have to be one and the same thing
Fm              D#          A           Bm
Oh, what's so wrong with a little competition?
Fm         D#                   F#m
Are you afraid of failing the audition?
