Loser Like Me by Glee is featured in Original Song, the sixteenth episode of Season Two. It is written and performed by the New Directions.
The lead solos are sung by Rachel and Finn, with Santana, Mercedes and Brittany having small solos/background vocals in this song. The song is about the members of New Directions (except Kurt, as he was at Dalton at the time), how they have been bullied and treated like outcasts, but how they are using these experiences to rise above the others.

During a brainstorming session, the kids start talking about some of the things Sue had done to them recently and how it made them feel, such as throwing sticks at Mercedes' head, filling Brittany and Santana's lockers with dirt, and asking to get Tina's name changed to "Tina Cohen-Loser" by pretending to be her. Will tells them that they might have found their song, himself coming up with the title.

The performance ends with New Directions throwing cups that have red confetti in them at the crowd, a parody of how they are usually being slushied. This is one of the two winning original songs, the other being Get It Right. Loser Like Me is sometimes known as the "Glee Theme Song".

LYRICS:

Rachel:
Yeah, you may think that I'm a zero (Santana: huh)
But hey
Everyone you wanna be,
Probably started off like me.
You may say that I'm a freak show,

Santana:
I don't care.

Rachel:
But, hey
Give it just a little time,
I bet you're gonna change your mind.
All of the dirt you've been throwing my way,
It ain't so hard to take.

Rachel and Finn:
That's right.

Rachel:
'Cause I know one day you'll be screaming my name
And I'll just look away.

Finn:
Push me up against the locker
And, hey, all I do is shake it off.
I'll get you back when I'm your boss
I'm not thinking 'bout you haters
'Cause, hey, I could be a superstar.
I'll see you when you wash my car.
