Remember how we used to party up all night Sneaking out and looking for a taste of real life Drinking in the small town firelight Pabst blue ribbons on ice
Sweet sixteen and we had arrived Walking down the streets as they whistle "Hi, hi" Stealing police cars with the senior guys Teachers said we'd never make it out alive
There she was, my new best friend High heels in her hands, swaying in the wind While she starts to cry Mascara running down her little bambi eyes "Lana, how I hate those guys"
This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven And we put love first Something that we'd die for It's a curse Don't cry about it Don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls We don't stick together 'Cause we put love first Don't cry about him Don't cry about him It's all gonna happen
And that's where the beginning of the end begun Everybody knew that we had too much fun We were skipping school And drinking on the job With the boss
Sweet sixteen and we had arrived Baby's table dancing at the local dive Cheering our names in the pink spotlight Drinking cherry schnapps in the velvet night
Yo, we used to go break-in To the hotel, glimmer and we'd swim Running from the cops in our black bikini tops Screaming "Get us while we're hot! Get us while we're hot!" C'mon, take a shot
This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven And we put love first Something that we'd die for It's a curse Don't cry about it Don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls We don't stick together 'Cause we put love first Don't cry about him Don't cry about him It's all gonna happen
The prettiest crowd that you have ever seen Ribbons on our hair And our eyes gleamed mean A freshmen generation of degenerate beauty queens And you know something?
They were the only friends I ever had We got in to trouble And when stuff got bad I got sent away I was waving on train platform Crying 'cause I know I'm never coming back
This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven And we put love first Something that we'd die for It's a curse Don't cry about it Don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls We don't stick together 'Cause we put love first Don't cry about him Don't cry about him It's all gonna happen
