I don't get picked first

even though I'm fast and smart

But that doesn't matter to team captains

because choosing teams is an art

You don't pick kids if they're nobodies

Which of course puts me last in line

But when they start calling names,

I can't help but wish for mine

But alas, It's not to be

My turn isn't bound to come

Until they get down to the end

And I'm the only one.
