Late Bloomer

You ain't fitting in with girls your age

At 20-something, I still feel that way

But I wouldn't have my sense of humor

If I wasn't such a late bloomer

Waiting for your hips to come in

Not as pretty as your best friend

Hell, I probably woulda gave it up sooner

If I wasn't such a late bloomer

They all grow in the spring

What's so special 'bout that?

You don't grow like a weed

Is that really so bad?

'Cause someday it's all eyes on you

When you walk in a room

Yeah, you're tougher, and you're softer, and you're cooler

Late bloomer

You'll learn to have some real thick skin

Them taking digs'll make you dig your heels in

It's probably why I cheer for and feel for the loser

'Cause we were some late bloomers

They all grow in the spring

What's so special 'bout that?

You don't grow like a weed

Is that really so bad?

'Cause someday it's all eyes on you

When you walk in a room

Yeah, you're tougher, and you're softer, and you're cooler

Late bloomer

It's gonna take a little rain

Look at what a downpour makes

Promise that you'll have your day

Someday, late bloomer

They all grow in the spring

But you're more special than that

Why get lost in the weeds

When you've got what you have

'Cause someday it's all eyes on you

When you walk in a room

'Cause you're tougher, and you're softer, and you're cooler

One day, I swear they'll say, "Remember when we knew her"
