Does your pretty face see what he's worth? He was a boy She was a girl Can I make it any more obvious? Sorry, girl, but you missed out He was a punk Well, tough, luck that boy's mine now She did ballet We are more than just good friends What more can I say? He wanted her She'd never tell Secretly she wanted him as well But all of her friends This is how the story ends Stuck up their nose Too bad that you couldn't see They had a problem with his baggy clothes See the man that boy could be There is more that meets the eye I see the soul that is inside He was a skater boy She said, "See you later, boy" He wasn't good enough for her He's just a boy She had a pretty face And I'm just a girl But her head was up in space Can I make it any more obvious? She needed to come back down to earth We are in love Haven't you heard How we rock each other's world Five years from now She sits at home Feeding the baby, she's all alone I'm with the skater boy She turns on TV I said, "See you later, boy" Guess who she sees I'll be back stage after the show Skater boy rockin' up MTV I'll be at a studio She calls up her friends Singing the song we wrote They already know About a girl you used to know And they've all got tickets to see his show She tags along And stands in the crowd I'm with the skater boy Looks up at the man that she turned down I said, "See you later, boy" I'll be back stage after the show I'll be at a studio He was a skater boy Singing the song we wrote She said, "See you later, boy" About a girl you used to know He wasn't good enough for her Now he's a super star Slammin' on his guitar Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy" He wasn't good enough for her Now he's a super star
