Sk8er Girl

He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
She was a punk.
He did ballet.
What more can I say?
She wanted him.
He'd never tell.
Secretly he wanted her as well.
And all of his friends
Stuck up their nose.
And they had a problem with her baggy clothes.

She was a skater girl, he said, "See ya later, girl."
She wasn't good enough for him.
He had a handsome face but his head was up in space.
He needed to come back down to earth.

Five years from now, he sits at home feeding the baby, he's all alone.
He turns on TV and guess who he sees?
Skater girl rockin' up MTV.
He calls up his friends.
They already know.
And they've all got tickets to see her show.
He tags along, stands in the crowd.
Looks up at the girl that he turned down.

[2x:]
She was a skater girl, he said, "See ya later, girl."
She wasn't good enough for him.
Now she's a superstar
Slammin' on her guitar
Does your handsome face see what she's worth?

Sorry, boy, but you missed out.
Well, tough luck, that girl's mine now.
We are more than just good friends.
This is how the story ends.
Too bad that you couldn't see...
See the girl that she could be.
There is more than meets the eye,
I see the soul that is inside.

I'm just a boy, and she’s 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 met the skater girl, I said, "See ya later, girl.
I'll be backstage after the show.
I'll be at the studio singing the song we wrote about a boy you used to know."
