he's just that boy from out of town

only stops here twice a year

he says your pretty and he adores you

reciting dialogue from classic romances (dialogue from the classics he steals)

but scarlet my dear, he doesnt give a damn about you

overrated boys and attention starved girls

a little curious, a little insecure

they call it love it might be premature

but they dont need excuses

shes just that girl from another town

you know her name by the letter of city and state

brown hair, blue eyes, shes about five' five

she'd never lie to you, but fidelity is no concern

when you have become this

overrated boys and attention starved girls

a little curious, a little insecure

they call it love it might be premature

but they dont need excuses

to feel used or feel lust

to feel wanted for once

to know theres somebody else

whos dying to feel anything

ready and willing

i guess now its safe to say

sincerity has become a lost art these days

and if its just to drown the tension

or maybe cool the friction

i think its time we clear the haze

or were just

overrated boys and attention starved girls

a little curious, a little insecure

we call it love it might be premature

but we dont need excuses

to feel used or feel lust

to feel wanted for once

to know theres somebody else

whos dying to feel anything

ready and willing
