Dear diary
I believe I'm a good person
You know, I think that there's good in everyone, but—
Here we are, first day of senior year!
And, uh, I look around at these kids that I've known all my life and I ask myself — what happened?

[KIDS]
Freak, slut, burnout, bug-eyes, poser, lard-ass

[VERONICA]
We were so tiny, happy and shiny
Playing tag and getting chased

[KIDS]
Freak, slut, loser, shortbus

[VERONICA]
Singing and clapping, laughing and napping
Baking cookies, eating paste

[KIDS]
Bull-dyke, stuck-up, hunchback

[VERONICA]
Then we got bigger, that was the trigger
Like the Huns invading Rome
