I'm that girl you think that's got it figured out
But I walk around, with a head full of doubt
The cruelest words about me, come from my own mouth la da de, la de da
Yeah, I'm that girl, who wants what I ain't got who looks in the mirror, and sees all that I'm not
Wish I could jump off this reckless train of thought la da de, la de da
Well it's a cruel, cruel world
For Collie and her golden, home coming crown
For Penny's dirty secret getting spread all over town
For Hanna and her skinny jeans, so damn scared to eat
Well the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys they never call
And I guess we're all the same after all
Nervous girls
Well I'm that girl who gave my heart up
Got close to picture perfect, or at least close enough to watch the pieces scatter, then pick 'em all up
La da de, la de da
Oh but I still believe in love
For Heather waiting tables, trying to pick up from the past
For Jenny with that diamond ring and a vow that didn't last
For Alice turning thirty, looking through that looking glass
Well the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys they never call
And I guess we're all the same after all
Nervous girls
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
I'm scared and I'm brave, or somewhere between the two
I'm beautifully strong, and tragically confused
Yeah, I'm that girl, that's just like you
Well the DJ haunts the halls
And when the boys finally call
We're not sure that we want 'em after all
Nervous girls, nervous girls, nervous girls, nervous girls
