lyrics

SONG ABOUT A CURLY HAIRED BOY: This is how the story went | I kissed a boy by accident | The way he knew how to hold my hand | Made me think we knew each other | & the way that he said he was crazy about me | Took me by surprise & I couldn’t see clearly | His words were so pretty like the thoughts I had | I fell for every one, the good & the bad | & maybe I’m bitter, but isn’t it sweet | All his pretending made me see that | I’m better than the song he played for me on his guitar | Borrowed words will only get him so far | & this time is the last time I try to understand | How to tell if he’s a boy or a man | The lies on his lips Don’t match the look on his face | He’s leaving fingerprints all over the place | He thinks he’s so cool smokin’ cigarettes | I guess that’s why I couldn’t smell potential regret | & maybe I’m lonely, but it’s not so bad | I like it more than what we never had | I’m better than the song he played for me on his guitar | Borrowed words will only get him so far | & this time is the last time I try to understand | How to tell if he’s a boy or a man | Don’t start the story with, "baby I’m sorry" | Don’t say you remember our lips feel good together | Don’t look at me like that, with confusion on your brow | Boy you gotta know what I’m talking about | I’m better than the song you played for me on your guitar | Borrowed words will only get you so far | & this time is the last time I try to understand that | I’m better than the song you played for me on your guitar | Borrowed words will only get you so far | & this time is the last time I try to understand How to tell if you're a boy or a man |
