[Verse 1] You alphabetize your spoons I name the pigeons on the roof You wear your coat inside out Like you’ve got nothing left to prove I keep a tiny plastic horse Beside the bills I never sort We trade our oddities like cards And laugh till every rule falls short [Pre-Chorus] You thought you had to sand it down Fold your elbows, lower sound But every strange and crooked part Is where the daylight gets its start [Chorus] Be weird, be loud, take up the room Wear your mismatched socks to the moon You don’t owe anybody neat You’re not a flaw they get to keep Be weird, be wild, let your colors spill The world can learn to love you still All of us, a glorious mess— Come as you are, and nothing less [Verse 2] You talk to plants in different voices I make up names for passing trains Your lunch is pickles, cake, and noodles My lucky hat has coffee stains They made a box and drew a line Then told us all to fit inside But you were never built to fold And I was never made to hide [Pre-Chorus] You thought you had to sand it down Fold your elbows, lower sound But every strange and crooked part Is where the daylight gets its start [Chorus] Be weird, be loud, take up the room Wear your mismatched socks to the moon You don’t owe anybody neat You’re not a flaw they get to keep Be weird, be wild, let your colors spill The world can learn to love you still All of us, a glorious mess— Come as you are, and nothing less [Bridge] To the kid who eats lunch in the stairwell To the grown-up who still keeps that toy To the one who rehearses every hello You are not too much, you are not a decoy Let the strange little habits stay Let the unapproved laugh break free We were never meant to match— We’re the proof of what a life can be [Final Chorus] Be weird, be loud, take up the room Wear your mismatched socks to the moon You don’t owe anybody neat You’re not a flaw they get to keep Be weird, be wild, let your colors spill The world can learn to love you still All of us, a glorious mess— Come as you are, and nothing less [Outro] Come as you are Nothing less A glorious mess Nothing less
