Well she borrowed my CDs
Then she moved to Bremerton
And now I can’t believe
That I let it happen
She even took the Cootees, singin’ Lisa’s clean
And now I’m wearing my shirt that says “Girls Are Mean”
She likes MxPx more than she likes me
Now I’m singin’ Brokenhearted while I’m playin’ DKC
In my room all alone
While she hangs out with the Chick Magnet at the Punk Rawk Show
I was born in Lonesome Town
Now I listen to Slick Shoes
And she’d probably hang around
If I had snake bites and tattoos
But now the joke’s on her
She didn’t watch the final Fixer Upper
Where Mike and Holly move to Texas, yeah
She likes MxPx more than she likes me
Now I’m singin’ Brokenhearted while I’m playin’ DKC
In my room all alone
While she hangs out with the Chick Magnet at the Punk Rawk Show
about
This is basically a love letter to my favorite band. No plagiarism intended! I hope Mike gets at least a chuckle out of it.
