Nothing to Prove The Doubleclicks
(capo 2nd fret)
[G]I entered this scene through rejection and honesty
[Am]Nerds weren't mean, they were weird and that worked for me
[C]After ten years of teasing when social skills failed me
[G]Dungeons & Drag[D]ons cured all that ailed me
[G]We read books, we played games, we made art, we watched "Lost"
[Am]We said things like "D20", "shipping", and "Mana cost"
[C]It felt good to be myself, not being mocked
[G]Still self-conscious, though, we whispered [D]things about jocks
[C]But one day, you grow up, come into your own
[Em]Now geek's not rejection, it's a label I own
[A]Then ignorant haters come to prove me wrong
[D]Tell me I'm not nerdy enough to belong
chorus:
[C]I've got [Am]nothin' to prove
[G]I've got [Am]nothin' to prove
[C]I've got [Am]nothin' to prove
[C] [D]
"Fake Geek Girl Test", that's a funny one, go ahead
How many comic books are there I haven't read?
I know it feels good to have a contest you win
It would feel even better if I wanted in
So women aren't geeks, so is that your conclusion?
That this is some secret club based on exclusion?
Twelve-year-old dorks would say you're being selfish
And then they'd go write in their journals in Elvish
(chorus)
(instrumental)
I've got cred, but honestly, I shouldn't need it
This world needs all kinds of folks to complete it
You've got gamers, and artists, and comic subscribers
Cosplayers, crafters, and fan-fiction writers
You can stop, never say "fake geek" again
Our club needs no bouncers, all who want in get in
But go ahead, if you want to own that role fully
I ain't got nothin' to prove to a bully!
(chorus)
Buddy,
(chorus)
Haters are gonna hate... [G]
