He was a boy, she was a girl
Can I make it any more obvious
He was a punk, she did ballet
What more can I say?
He wanted her, she'd never tell
But secretly she wanted him as well.
And all of her friends stuck up their nose
And they had a problem with his baggy clothes.
He was a skater boy, she said see ya later, boy
He wasn't good enough for her.
She had a pretty face, but her head was up in space.
She needed to come back down to earth.
Five years from now, she sits at home
feeding the baby, she's all alone.
She turns on T.V, guess who she sees?
Skater boy rocking on MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know.
And they've all got tickets to see the show.
She tags along, stands in the crowd,
looks up at the man she turned down.
(2x)
He was a skater boy,
She said see ya later boy,
He wasn't good enough for her.
Now he's a superstar,
slamming on his guitar,
does your pretty face see what he's worth?
Sorry, girl, but you missed out.
Well, tough luck, that boy's mine now.
We are more than just good friends.
This is how the story ends.
Too bad that you couldn't see...
See that man that boy could be.
There is more than meets the eye,
I see the soul that is inside.
He's just a boy, and I'm just a girl.
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love.
Haven't you heard how we rock each other's world?
I'm with the skater boy, I said, "See ya later, boy.
I'll be backstage after the show.
I'll be at the studio singing the song we wrote about a girl you used to know."
