Take a boy, put him in a uniform once
Then leave him on the sidelines for a couple of months
And put his peers in the game, rub salt in the wound
You better hope that his time comes soon
Watch him as he waits, makes moves of his own
Becomes an asset, gets shoes in the zone
Staying on the ball, advancing inch by inch
Until he’s the one they call to get em out of a pinch

What do you get when you’re a scrawny kid, hardly big
Enough to stand up for yourself or roughed up cuz you already did?
It’s hard to fit in when you’re ridiculed and targeted
And getting hit is bad but just a fraction of a part of it
Is it pathetic to be weaker than? It probably is
Threading through my life, I’m on a string of broken promises
Tried to blend in but my freckles had me spotted quick
Knots up in my stomach like a ball to get me awful sick
Saw me on the ground, they’re making life hard
You’re looking down at me like a lifeguard
You found me, now I’m never living life scarred
Can’t believe the friend you’d be to me, and my heart goes
Tsukki, Tsukki, no I’ll never be as cool as you
Sue me, sue me, I just wanna go to school with you
Do we, do we get along, if it’s true
I’m just happy for the chance at having anything to do with you

Take a boy, put him in a uniform once
Then leave him on the sidelines for a couple of months
And put his peers in the game, rub salt in the wound
You better hope that his time comes soon
Watch him as he waits, makes moves of his own
Becomes an asset, gets shoes in the zone
Staying on the ball, advancing inch by inch
Until he’s the one they call to get em out of a pinch

Had my setbacks, but I always kept an open mind
Hit a set back to my homie on the open line
Had to get practice, Shimada got me on my grind
Now I’m exact with the targets that I hope to find
From the back rows, it’s a proper success
Limelight shows, and we’re popping with zest
Everybody knows, you ain’t stopping the quest
Karasuno crows at the top, we’re the best
Put us to the test, reckless and a shame
We’ve been underestimated but now we’re getting famous
You’re all about to watch me and Tsu-Tsukki win the game
Cuz I know I’m quality, Gu-Gucci in the name
Now I’m storming to the four times three, that’s twelve
Making sure that every record that you see has Ls
Have you missing like as if you didn’t see that well
It’s Tadashi, every serve you see from me, that’s hell

Take a boy, put him in a uniform once
Then leave him on the sidelines for a couple of months
And put his peers in the game, rub salt in the wound
You better hope that his time comes soon
Watch him as he waits, makes moves of his own
Becomes an asset, gets shoes in the zone
Staying on the ball, advancing inch by inch
Until he’s the one they call to get em out of a pinch

Heart of a mountain, wings of a crow
Heart of a mountain, wings of a crow
Heart of a mountain, wings of a crow
Heart of a mountain

Take a boy, put him in a uniform once
Then leave him on the sidelines for a couple of months
And put his peers in the game, rub salt in the wound
You better hope that his time comes soon
Watch him as he waits, makes moves of his own
Becomes an asset, gets shoes in the zone
Staying on the ball, advancing inch by inch
Until he’s the one they call to get em out of a pinch
