i don't want to be mean
how does it feel to downhill ski in acid wash jeans?
i don't want to be cruel
but it seems like a pretty freaky thing to go and do
and on a sick day when you're in your bed
common cold lodged in your poor little head
when you're playing all the conversations
and all the little things you say you never said
what can you say?
you've been losing faith in being saved
and let down by your heart again
what can you do?
when nobody is being fooled
and the kids are sick of being cool
what can you say?
when you're part of everything you see
but remember how it used to be
you know i hate to be mean
but those French immersion girls will always be out of reach
i don't want to offend
but sometimes my sony discman is my only friend
on a bench seat on your school bus you never felt so far out of love
what can you say?
you've been losing faith in being saved
and let down by your heart again
what can you do?
when nobody is being fooled
and the kids are sick of being cool
what can you say?
when you're part of everything you see
but remember how it used to be
overrated me overrated you
we'll be a family
do what families do
overrated me overrated you
can we just be friends?
do what friends will do
