Slight of hand, keep them guessing
They won't believe their eyes
(Come on)
Focus man, don't get messy. You'll ruin the surprise
I made the choice, to be the one who could make myself disapear
I have a voice but they hear not
Wait till I show them all one year!
If they could see me, then they would believe me
That I'm not a fake
They'll see my magic's real
Through all their laughter, this human disaster
Will silence their teasing with a big reveal
With tremendous power, comes a social curse
To be the last loser in the universe
Steady hand, filled with fury
And always follow through
Mom and Dad, sometimes worry
About the things I do
Who needs a friend, who understands
That I chose to live this way?
Go ahead, condescend
Till you see first hand
Oh yes, I'll show you one day!
If they could see me, then they would believe me
I'm not a fake
They'll see my magic's real
Nothing but laughter, if I could think faster
Id join in the teasing and hide the way I feel
It seems my only power is to make a crowd disperse
'Cuz I'm just a loser
Eleven Hours, Practicing everyday
You're almost there
Get it right, no mistakes
I've just got to find a way to show them
I'm amazing
So I might suck at sports
And I might lag behind
And I may blow at speaking up and social cues
But I can blow your mind!
Steady hand, keep them guessing
Though they seem not to be phased
That's okay, still impressing
So soon they'll be amazed
A time will come
When I'll see my name
Shine in the Vegas lights
This world I'm from
Won't be the same
When I reach the greater heights
If they could see me, then they would believe me
I'm not a fake
They'll see my magic's real
Through all their laughter, this human disaster
Will silence their teasing with a big reveal
With tremendous power, comes a social curse
To be the last loser in the universe
