One of the Boys
Lyrics
I saw a spider, I didn't scream
'Cause I can belch the alphabet
Just double dog dare me
And I chose guitar over ballet
And I take these suckers down 'cause they just
Get in my way
(The way) the way
(You look) you look at me
Is kinda like a little sister
You high-five your goodbyes
And it leaves me nothing but blisters
So I don't want to be one of the boys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
One of your guys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls (just wanna be, just wanna be)
Pretty in pearls
Not one of the boys
So over summer something changed
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs
And I studied Lolita religiously
And I walked right in school
And caught you staring at me
'Cause I know what you know
But now your gonna have to take a number
It's okay, maybe one day
But not until you give me my diamond ring
'Cause I don't want to be one of the boys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
One of your guys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be your homecoming queen (just wanna be, just wanna be)
Pin-up poster dream
Not one of the boys
I wanna be a flower, not a dirty weed
I wanna smell like roses, not a baseball team
And I swear maybe one day
You're gonna wanna make out, make out, make out with me
(Don't want to be) don't want to be
(Don't want to be) don't want to be
(Don't want to be)
'Cause I don't want to be one of the boys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
One of your guys (don't want to be, don't want to be)
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls (just wanna be, just wanna be)
Pretty in pearls
Not one of the boys
