Busted - Nerdy Lyrics
It's always been up to your friends
They'll make your mind up for you
The popularity's gone to your head
But still I don't ignore you
You ran for school election
And did you know?
My favourite pastime's poetry
And yesterday I wrote
[Chorus:]
Just because I'm nerdy
And my friends are thirty
It doesn't mean that I swing that way
If you've got complications
And a reputation
Oh anyway
This morning you walked past my door
Just like a daydream
But much more
I followed you round to the store
And I was shell-shocked
When I saw
You and your friends were smoking
It always makes me choke
And did you know?
I'd do anything to have you
But I wouldn't take a toke
Hey
[Chorus:]
Just because I'm nerdy
And my friends are thirty
It doesn't mean that I swing that way
If you've got complications
And a reputation
Wouldn't wanna get in your way
Oh anyway
Anyway, anyway yeah
You said my words were beautiful
They almost made you cry
The markings on the wall were jaded
I wonder why?
Just because you're nerdy
And your friends are thirty
Doesn't mean she won't swing your way
If she's got complications
And a reputation
Go ahead and stand in her way
Just because you're nerdy
And your friends are thirty
Doesn't mean she won't swing your way
If she's got complications
And a reputation
Go ahead and stand in her way
But anyway
Anyway
Anyway

Busted Nerdy Comments
I am having a Busted binge right now!
nice guy anthem
Love this song
right back at you mcbusted is bae nothing to it mcfly and busted on there own are bae as well nothing compares to the two greatest bands of all time I'm glad I grew up listening to the most wonderful artists ever!!!!! #throwback days
I'm pretty sure I can hear Tom Fletcher's voice in the chorus.
you probably did he was originally a member of busted
Even in 2015, Busted are still epic
this song is my life!
that's fucking bullshit both matt and charlie smoke what the fuck
@***** i meant in the song he's bitching about choking when he smokes but both charlie and matt are chain smokers so i don't understand
Just because I'm pervy and my friends are thirteen.
Well that was rude GET OUT
+Thomaas Millership People without a sense of humour... worst kind of people
Thirty not thirteen
this thoguh!
Still watch it on 2015 (y)
Obsessed with this song in 2015. I'm weird okay.
My god I love the bit starting at 0:36 it sounds so beautiful ugh
Does Matt even have a line to sing? I didn't recognize his voice?
Are you serious ???
Just so everyone is clear on this McFly did NOT copy Busted. Tom co-wrote most of A Present For Everyone with James and they discovered what McFly's sound would be by writing a song called 'That Thing You Do' so please stop saying they copied them or only made it because Busted broke up because there was the whole of 2004 where they were both equally successful bands it is just Charlie decided to make a different band and leave Busted. I believe that McFly would still be as successful as they are now even if Busted had stayed together
James wrote a lot of McFlys songs.
yep and that is what makes a lot of them awesome, although all of mcflys songs (even if not written by james) are amazing and awesome
I got a Rapunzel picture too!
cool, hey
has to be there best
my child hood band
I'm sorry but if you're saying Mcfly are better than Busted because of this, then it may surprise than Tom actually wrote this song.
man this brings me so much memories, i remember being 14 and listening to this in summer and being all confused and shit, i kinda miss those days tbh, there were no worries, life was just good :)
When i listened i was like 7 jumping around my room >_>
amazing at mcbusted
just heard this live at mcbusted was a m a z i n g!
Im still listning to thier songgs lol :)
well music doesn't have a sell buy date mate
@joe simister cell* by*
that kind of not the point
and NOW: McBUSTED is on :D the best bands in the world as one! <33 But I miss Charlie...
now busted is back for good. with charlie.
But still i don't ignore you
It's Complications, and why would it go 'she's got Qualifications and a reputation' That just sounds weird
YES!!!!!!!!! some one gets it finally
There not a boy band they are just a band
No it is complications if you listen to it
pretty sure its complications:)
the popularities got to your head
its not
Chorus.
*Qualifications not Complications.
They make your mind up, For you
I love Mcfly and Busted...i would love them to get back together but Tom Fletcher is Mcfly now!
love this song can sing it and know itof by heart
*cough* Janoskians *cough* <----- I love them but their "songs" mess up their youtube videos
They were a BAND.
They played their own instruments, thus making them a BAND.
Boybands just sing and dance terribly.
WTF were they then? Idiot.
Still listening to this in 2013... shits still good.
start a lyric chain
it's always been up to your friends
Busted were NOT a boy band.
Well For me Busted is the best band ever...
And it's a shock that they are a boy band..
now a days the boy bands are like one Direction _|_
thumbs up if u like busted more than 1D
I LOVE BUSTED AND MCFLY! and actually charlie chose to go to a different band therefore breaking up busted
ADORO las canciones de Busted!<3
Hmm Por casualidad, alguien conoce otra banda que cante temas tipo asi de geniales igual? o parecido? (Amo la musica=)
Sigan me en twitter! @TommoSmile1
Reading the info box thing...people were fighting over McFly and Busted...really? There's just no need is there .__.
The end of this song is so good at cheering me up
I must like your comment...because the current likes was 69 ...
i used to sit and cry to this song when i was like 12 hahaha why
that changes the song's meaning dramatically.
Anyone got a bass tab for this?
*you're
tehe, I know =] I'm trying not to feel so old ><
Youll always be young at heart if you just never grow up!:D
im listening to this in the year 3OOO ;)
I think I just cried :') Haha :')
The Jimmy Saville version :D
in my country its kind of =\
having a job at 16 aint illegal
I'm 16 and I left high school (done a little earlier) And got a job as a web developper with my bro (which is 30 and having a job at 16 is illegal but its in secret). My friends are all 30 and I felt like childhood ended for me :( but hey, this song is just so perfect x]
Love Busted.!! 2012!!
i love this song i love them there the best band from england ever i miss them soooooooo much i wish they would get back together <3
We are all going to be with our mums when we are thirty now the world is so fucked up. Specially here in Spain.
I call it 'the lounge' in 2010..? :S
Was it called 'The Lounge' in the 1800s?
I just read the description and I'm sorry to say it- McFly and Busted are both good bands but Busted is better. That's why I still listen to them and not McFly.
Happy 29th Birthday Matt !!!
Charlie Simpson*_* y u so hawt? ;)
I still actually listen to Busted aha!
I did that for my 6th birthday :'D lmao
The awkward moment when the top comments are the same.
Hahahahaha Busted was my favourite band when I was like 10....back then I didn't know what they meant when they sang "doesn't mean that I swing that way" lol
favourited ;)
@Lillyducky793 Meh, own opinions ;3
@MsRavenBrown Well that's you're opinion :3 I always thought they were worse than the studio mix (as every band is - usually). But i still love them :3
my fave ever busted song??
@Natthenutterv3 :O they were amazing live wtf are you smoking??? i went to their last ever concert they were amazing!
@MsRavenBrown That's the auto-tune for you... Shame they sucked live. Busted were pretty good (Y) RIP.
Are the lyrics really 'Thirty'?
wouldnt it make more sense for it to be 'Flirty' instead? or am I just deaf?
@JadeMcgivern1995 wow, and I ever did was talk about them a lot and my parents made fun of me for it.
Busted made my childhood<3Still know every word to their songs, even though now I see they really are so ingenious! Even still my life would be so much better if they got back together ! haha
Matt's voice is different in this one... I like it :D
I love McFly. I love the Jonas Brothers. I love Busted. They are all amazing, so stop complaining and enjoy music
Still loving it in 2011 <3
thats what i go to school for wooo busted this one is my greatest i love it lots
This song is the ONLY reason I don't smoke. Honestly, if Busted wouldn't take a toke, I still won't. (:
I rediscovered this song on my IPod this morning and spent the day casually wandering the streets listening to it.
