Here’s to the nerds.
The real life Harry Potters and Peter Parkers.
The ones with glasses as big as mirrors.

Here’s to the nerds.
The ones that role play.
Crazy card collectors.

Here’s to the nerds.
The fans of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and make believe.
Readers of the Lord of the Rings.
Viewers of Star Trek.

Here’s to the nerds.
Gamers that obsess over Call of Duty.
The ones that work at GameStop.

Here’s to the nerds.
The straight A students.
Bookworms of the library.
The so called “teacher’s pet”.

Here’s to the nerds.
We may be flagged, but we don’t care.
We accept what we are.
