[BLAINE & (NEW DIRECTIONS), {with NEW DIRECTIONS}]
I took my baby to the doctor
With a fever but nothing he found
By the time this hit the street
They said she had a breakdown!

(Aaah) Someone's always trying, (Aaah) to start my baby crying
(Aaah) Talkin', squealin', lyin'
Sayin' {You just wanna be startin' somethin'}

I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
But you got to be startin' somethin'
I said you wanna be startin' somethin'
But you got to be startin' somethin'

You're a vegetable (You're a vegetable)

Still they hate you (Still they hate you)
You're a vegetable (You're a vegetable)
You're just a buffet (You're just a buffet)

They eat off of you (They eat off of you)
You're a vegetable, ow! (You're a vegetable) (Wee!)

[BLAINE with NEW DIRECTIONS]
Lift your head up high
And scream out to the world!
I know I am someone
And let the truth unfurl!

No one can hurt you now
Because you know it's true
Yes, I believe in me
So you believe in you!
