Loser Like Me
Glee Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, you may think that I'm a zero
But hey, everyone you wanna be
Probably started off like me
You may say that I'm a freak show (I don't care)
But hey, give it just a little time
I bet you're gonna change your mind
All of the dirt you've been throwin' my way
It ain't so hard to take, that's right
'Cause I know one day you'll be screaming my name
And I'll just look away, that's right
New Directions
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down
Baby, I don't care
Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out
You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me
A loser like me
Finn with Brittany
Push me up against the locker
And hey, all I do is shake it off
I'll get you back when I'm your boss
I'm not thinkin' 'bout you haters
'Cause, hey, I could be a superstar
I'll see you when you wash my car
Rachel with Finn
All of the dirt you've been throwin' my way
It ain't so hard to take, that's right
'Cause I know one day you'll be screaming my name
And I'll just look away, that's right
New Directions
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down
Baby, I don't care
Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out
You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me
A loser like me
A loser like me
Brittany with New Directions
Hey you over there
Keep the L up up in the air
Hey you over there
Keep the L up 'cause I don't care
You can throw your sticks
And you can throw your stones
Like a rocket, just watch me go
Yeah L-O-S-E-R, I can only be who I are
New Directions (Mercedes)
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth (Yeah)
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down
Baby, I don't care
Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out
You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth (Yeah)
So everyone can hear

The song "Loser Like Me" by Glee Cast is an anthem for those who are often bullied or belittled by others. The song expresses the idea that those who are considered losers or outcasts by others can rise above their circumstances and achieve great things with determination and hard work. The first verse, sung by Rachel with Santana, starts with the line "Yeah, you may think that I'm a zero, but hey, everyone you wanna be probably started off like me." This suggests that even those who are successful or popular might have faced rejection or struggles at some point in their lives.
The chorus of the song is a call to action for those who are being bullied: "Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth, so everyone can hear. Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down, baby, I don't care. Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out you wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me." This encourages those who are being belittled to embrace their "loser" status and use it as a motivation to achieve success.
The song also features verses from different members of the New Directions club, who boast about their abilities and mock their haters. Brittany sings, "Push me up against the locker, and hey, all I do is shake it off. I'll get you back when I'm your boss," suggesting that she will eventually rise above her current circumstances and become successful. The overall message of the song is one of resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity.

@@magnuschase477 Truth, which we do not like:
- there is no billions of years, there is only 6000 years.
- The UFOs have always been the FALLEN ANGELS. Fallen angels and the devil is not a myth.
- there is no planets, there is only plane knows as EARTH.
- there is no cosmos, there is HELL - EARTH - WATERS - THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
- there is no evolution, there is the CREATIONS OF GOD.
- there is no humans being only carnal being, there is HUMANS - being created after the image of GOD. (Human being = SPIRIT BEING).
- the reality is not that live however you like, you still be in heaven. The reality is, COME TO REPENTANCE - BORN AGAIN, DO THE WILL OF GOD = THE NARROW ROAD TO HEAVEN.
Matthew 7:21
The truth we don`t like:
- we are sinners who are called to repentance and to born again, Luke 13:5 , John 3:7
- we are called back home with renewed minds and hearts, yet many shall reject the calling and perish into the torment.
- we live under demonic power, the evil spirits in high places: Ephesians 6:12
- there is a risk to be a lukewarm and a cast away. Revelation 3:15 , Luke 9:25
- the final A.I shall be humans themselves, Spirits in-prisoned into the machine, wishing to die, yet no death for them. Revelation 9:6
- as time pass by, there be more and more betrayals, among families:
¤ son against his father, father against his son,
¤ daughter against her mother, mother against her daughter,
¤ mother in law against daughter in law
