Lyrics of 'Where Do You Belong' by Mean Girls (Broadway Musical)

[Damian]
My momma used to tell me
Baby girl don’t ever eat lunch on the John

[Janis]
Your mother called you baby girl?

[Damian]
Singing, ha ha
So what if all the ducklings think you’re ugly?
It’s because they’ve never seen a swan
It takes all kinds of people who need people
So find people you can bare

Go find your group, your herd, your flock
Come talk a walk and answer my small questionnaire
Which I’ll sing to you
Ahhh, ahhh

Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?
Where do you belong?

You’ll be judged on sight
And made to fit
So find a clique and stick with it
Say, where do you belong?

Let’s take a walk around the cafeteria, shall we?
I’ll show you the world as I see it

Varsity jocks and JV jocks
Will throw you in a locker if you say hello
The rich stoners hate the gangsta whites
Though they're all smokin' the same oregano

Here’s the sexually active band geeks
I’ve got two words for you
"Embouchure" and "ew"
And if you like blowing and fingering

[Sexually active band geeks]
This is the group of you!

Back me up, show choir!
Cady, where do you belong
Where do you belong

[Students]
Dah da-da-da da-da-ya!

[Damian]
We all get a box, that’s where we go
It’s stifling but at least you know
So, where do you belong?

[Students]
Dah da-da-da da-da-ya!
Da-da-ya!
Da-da-ya!
See da-bda-bdoo
Bda-bso bdoo-dee

[Damian]
There’s girls that eat their feelings
And girls that don’t eat
I like eating birthday cake around them
Makes them crazy

[Students]
Debate team
And dance team
They like to compete

[Damian]
And if they don’t win
Their parents ground them

[Cady]
Who’s that?

[Damian]
Darling, that's the mathletes

[Cady]
Cool!

[Damian]
Joining them is social suicide

[Damian & students]
It’s all college applications
And doctor who quotations

[Damian]
They wear their awkwardness with stubborn pride
This is my dance break

[Damian & students]
Where do you belong
Where do you belong
Where do you belong
Where do you belong

[Damian]
You’ll be judged on site, voted in or out
‘Cause that’s what high school’s all about

[Damian & students]
Where do you belong?

[Cady]
Oh, a Kenya jacket! Jambo, rafiki!

[Rachel Hamilton]
What did you call me?

[Damian]
Nope, those are the woke seniors
Hey, Rachel, you look cute
I liked your post about intersectional veganism
See? Nothing
She can tell we’re idiots
But, who is at this table? Why it’s Janis!

[Janis]
And Damian, too!

[Students]
Oooh

[Janis & Damian]
We’re not exactly joiners
But, we’ll be good friends to you
And our friendship means you can skip

[Janis]
The geeks and the freaks, and the peaking too soon

[Damian]
The strivers and survivors, just waiting for June
The junior achievers

[Janis]
The Christian believers

[Damian]
The tall, flowering wallflowers, bending on sneakers

[Janis & Damian]
Forget this fuss
And stall with us
Just come to lunch
And sit with us!

[Cady]
Okay?!

[Janis]
Yes!
Sit with us

[Damian]
Here’s where you belong

[Janis & Damian]
Here’s where you belong

[Janis, Damian & students]
Oooh
Here’s where you belong
Here’s where you belong
Here’s where you belong
Here’s where you belong

[Damian]
You need protection with pizazz
And helping hands

[Janis, Damian & students]
That also jazz!
Stay here where you belong
(Here’s where you belong)
Stay here

[Cady]
Okay, I’m staying!

[Janis, Damian & students]
Yes, here’s where you belong!

[Janis & Damian]
Hey, Cady, this is where you fit!
Hey, Cady, this is where you sit!

[Janis, Damian & students]
Here’s where you belong!
