I saw a spider, I didn't scream
Cos I can belch the alphabet, just double-dog dare me
And I chose guitar over ballet
And I tape these suckers down cos they just get in my way
The way you look at me
It's kind of like a little sister
You high-five your goodbyes
And it leaves me nothing but blisters

So I don't wanna be
One of the boys
One of the guys
Just gimme a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be
One of the girls
Pretty in pearls
Not one of the boys

So over the summer, something changed
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs
And I study Lolita religiously
And I walked right into school and caught you drooling over me

Cos’ I know what you know
But now, you're gonna have to take a number
It's okay, maybe one day
But not until I get my diamond ring

Cos’ I don't wanna be
One of the boys
One of the guys
Just gimme a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be
Your homecoming queen
Pin-up poster dream
Not one of the boys

I wanna be a flower
Not a dirty weed
And I wanna smell like roses
Not a baseball team
And I swear maybe one day
You're gonna wanna make out, make out, make out with me
Don't want to be

So I don't want to be
One of the boys
One of the guys
Gimme a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be
I just wanna be one of the girls
So pretty in pearls
Not one of the boys
