Skater Boy

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
Secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck out their nose
Oh, they had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a skater boy, she said, "See you 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

Oh, five years from now, she sits at home
Feeding the baby, she's all alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees?
Skater boy rockin' on MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know
And they've all got tickets to see his show
She tags along, stands in the crowd
But the minute she turned around

He was a skater boy, she said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a superstar, so feminine on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
He was a skater boy, she said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a superstar, so feminine on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
