問題
You ( ① ) the
popular one, the popular chick
It is what it is, now I'm popular-ish
Standing on the field with your pretty pompoms
Now you're working at the movies selling popular corn
I could have been a mess but I never went ( ② )
Standing on the field with your pretty pompoms
Now you're working at the movies selling popular corn
I could have been a mess but I never went ( ② )
Cause I’m putting down my story in a popular song
Ahh,
I said I'm putting down my story in a popular song
(*) My problem, I never was a model
I never was a scholar, but you were ( ③ ) popular
You were singing all the songs I don't know
Now you're ( ④ ) the ( ⑤ ) row, cause my song is popular
Popular, I know about popular
It's not about who you are or your fancy car
You're only ever who you were Popular, I know about popular
And all that you ( ⑥ ) to do, is be true to you
That’s all
you ever need to know
So ( ⑦ ) up, cause you got an awful
long way to go
So ( ⑦ ) up, cause you got an awful
long way to go
Always on the lookout for
someone to ( ⑧ )
Picking' me like a dinner plate
You hid during classes and in ( ⑨ )'em
Dunk me in the toilets now it's you that cleans them
You tried to make me feel ( ⑩ ) with the things you do
It isn’t so funny when the joke's on you
Ooh, the joke's on you
Got everyone ( ⑪ ) , got
everyone clapping, askin'
How come you look so cool?
Cause that’s the only thing that I learned at school, boy
Uh huh, I said that’s the only thing that I learned at school
(*repeat)
That’s all you ever need to know You're only ever
who you were
That’s all you ever need to know You're only ever who you were
That’s all you ever need to know Popular, I know about popular
It's not about who you are or your fancy car
You're only ever who you were Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do, is be true to you
That’s all you ever need to ( ⑫ )

【中学レベル】
the songs I don't know
意味→ 私の知らないその歌
関係代名詞の省略ですね。
分からなかった人は、名詞の後に主語、動詞がきたらその名詞を説明しているという感覚を身に付けましょう。
the songs を後ろの I don't know が説明しているものです（後置修飾)
You
tried to make me feel bad
意味→ あなたは私の気分を悪くするよう試みた
ここで大切なのは
try to do ~するように試みる、～するよう努める
make A B AをBにする
です。
なお、この文では過去形なのでtryの過去形triedにしています。
have to → ～する必要がある
同じような意味の英語→ must
この問題であえて同じような意味と問うたのは、若干の違いを覚えてもらうためです。
１ have to do は～する必要がある
２ must do は～しなければならない
となります。
１の方が２より弱いです。
肯定文では have to = must としても良いですが
否定になると以下の問題のように don't have to ≠ must not となります。
・以下の文を同じ意味になるように書き換えよ。
You don’t have to run here.
→ You don’t need to run here.
You must not play the piano.
→ Don’t play the piano.
must not は～してはならない（禁止）となり、命令文の否定（禁止）と同じ意味となります。
この機会にぜひ違いをマスターしてください。
