lyrics

andrea started a band
but she did not understand
she wanted to be as cool as she can
you better not touch that letter
you better not touch that dial

all the girls started to shout
when the pity poetry starts
with every word bouncing back from their hearts
as if she'd never learned the difference
between precocious and precious

andrea's dying her hair back to red
and then strangely enough
even all of the boys did
she'll never remove the tattoo that she drew
on her right shoulder blade
you know it's not enough to say

andrea sat on the stage
wet with blood, sweat, and bitter rage
wondering why she felt old for her age
when all the girls said they loved her
like she'd been left for dead

andrea's dying her hair back to red
and then strangely enough
even all of the boys did
she'll never remove the tattoo that she drew
on her right shoulder blade
you know it's not enough to say

all your dreams are gone
never will you sing no more
you know you've got the right thing going on

andrea's dying her hair back to red
and then strangely enough
even all of the boys did
she'll never remove the tattoo that she drew
on her right shoulder blade
you know it's not enough to say

all your dreams are gone
never will you sing no more
you know you've got the right thing going on
