Lyrics

There's a boy around the corner
Who will tell you how beautiful you are
How smart and how far
He will take you
If you let him take you

There's a guy in a suit
Who sits on a chair in a room
Promises he’ll give you the world
If you hand it all over
If your hands go all over

She never wanted to be
She never thought she would be
That girl

There’s a relative who laid her on his bed
Put a pillow under her head
What happened next
Was never spoken about
Not ever spoken

There’s a man she looked up to
Who she thought would save her world
Bring her love, joy, and security
He left when she was seven
Her trust in men left at seven

She never wanted to be
She never thought she would be

That girl is student body president
That girl has a lot of friends
That girl grows up to be a woman

She never wanted to be
She never thought she would be
She never dreamed she would be
That girl

There's a boy around the corner
Who will tell you how beautiful you are
How smart and how far
He will take you
If you let him
