No Way
Team Starkid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Harry:
My mind is racing, but my heart, it beats faster
I'm in control, commander and master
Lady Fate, creating disaster
But she ain't the boss of me!

Head-on collision with a catastrophic setback
Makes you either wanna get lost, or get back
I choose the latter; let's not forget that
We hold the cards this time
So there's no need to bitch or whine!

There's no way
I'm gonna take another option
No way I am gonna settle with a loss!
No way I'm gonna sit around and watch
There's no, no way...

There's no way
You're gonna find me in the background
No damn way you gonna see me satisfied!
No way they're ever gonna make me back down
No, no way...

Draco:
Home field advantage
The upper hand is ours
So the game is on!

Ron and Hermione:
The clock ticks
But we've got our tricks
To fuss with and fix what wrong!

Harry:
Let's wake up and go, guys
Take out the bad guys
Break out your mad eyes

All:
Yeah!

We'll take it on together,
We're stronger and we're better
And if there's a problem

Harry:
(Spoken) Ha!

All:
Whatever!

There's no way
We're gonna leave it up to chance
There's no damn way we're gonna go without a fight!
No way you gonna see us on on our ass
There's no, no way...

There's no way
We're gonna settle with sorrow
Leave right now if you think this ain't real!
Today, not waiting for tomorrow!

No, no way. There's no way!
No, no way. There's no way!




No, no way. There's no way!
There's no way...

The ending of this makes me think that Darren Criss's absolute favorite activity in the whole world is resolving chords.
