[Verse 1] They split the room in two By the shoes they wear One table laughs too loud Like the whole world’s there You can ace the test Still get boxed out cold If you don’t fold your edge You don’t fit the mold [Pre-Chorus] And they call it cool When nobody thinks Just nod and grin And swallow your ink [Chorus] Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown They keep the keys and shut truth down Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown Why does loud win when smart gets drowned? (Why does loud win?) I won’t trade my mind For a plastic throne Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown I’d rather stand alone [Verse 2] They pick the jokes they want Then the rest gets bent Facts get tossed aside Like they never meant You can know the map Still get sent around If the top kid smiles Then the room says “down” [Pre-Chorus] And they say “be nice” While they make the rules A room full of masks And a hall full of fools [Chorus] Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown They keep the keys and shut truth down Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown Why does loud win when smart gets drowned? (Why does loud win?) I won’t trade my mind For a plastic throne Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown I’d rather stand alone [Bridge] Let them have their cheer Let them have their day Built on yes-men smiles And what they throw away I’d rather be wronged Than learn to pretend That empty is power And silence is friend [Final Chorus] Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown They keep the keys and shut truth down Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown Why does loud win when smart gets drowned? (Why does loud win?) I won’t trade my mind For a plastic throne Lunchroom crown, lunchroom crown I’d rather stand alone
