Verse 1
I met a girl named Tara,
And she lived in the heart of America,
She liked black caddies,
Listened to Puff Daddy,
And danced until her legs were sore

She worked around a corner,
At a diner with a grouchy owner,
And her boyfriend Shady dates another girl named Katie,
He loves her definitely maybe…

Don’t think I can take it,
Wake me when it’s over..
She lives so far away,
I wish that it was closer…
I see you everyday,
I’m too scared to go over,
I wonder what she’d say,
I barely even know her…

Chorus
And how much longer,
Will this keep getting stronger?
I wonder what she’s doing,
When I’m singing myself to sleep…
Cause he’s a faker,
So see ya later,
I wonder when you’ll realize that she means,
A lot more to me…

Verse 2
I saw you in the hallway,
When my last class was just over,
It was Friday, school was out,
Tonight, everything seems to be alright,
I said,
“Yo, are you goin to the party at the cove?”
She said,
“He’s pickin me up at 6 again,
and I don’t wanna disappoint my boyfriend”

Chorus

Bridge
And she’s starin at his picture hangin in her locker,
She’s tellin all the girls about all the things,
That he bought her,
I saw what really happened,
All those times he went for water,
When we were at the movie theatre,
Watchin' Harry Potter,
He had his hands on,
Every single girl he laid his eyes on,
To break it to ya,
He’s a pylon,
And even when he kissed her,
He was lookin over starin at her sister,

CHORUS
