QB song contest

Wait
(with apologies to lisa loeb)

You
say I only hear what I want to.
You say I neg all
the time.
And I thought what I knew was
ample,
And I thought that I couldn't be wrong,
And now
that I am negging
Now I know that I did something
wrong 'cause I messed up.
Yeah yeah, I messed
up.

And you say I only hear what I want to:
I don't
listen hard,
Don't pay attention to the dates in the
question
To the moderator, anything,
I don't understand if
I can really play,
I'm only hearing negative:
no, no, no.

So I push the buzzer down, I turn
my head up,
And the reader was singing my
song:
Answer is wrong, and the other teams got it,
Captain
is mad 'cause I never wait on it.
Some of you may
hover 
then you weep at the buzzer for the answer
that you knew from the start

Well, well, this
is not that;
I think that I'm knowing , but I'm
wrong.
And I thought I'd play forever, but now I'm not so
sure.
You try to tell me that I'm clever,
But that don't
get me any points, or any powers for you 
You said
that I was naive,
And I thought that I was
strong.
I thought, "hey, I can buzz, I can buzz."
Oh,
but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I messed
up
Yeah, I messed up.
You said, "I'll kill you'cause I
knew it and one day I'll beat you in
"I always give
them a tossup, or keep silent
you know you're just
so scared to lose.
And you say, "Wait"
And you
say I only hear what I want to.
