He was a boy, she was a girl, can I make it any more obvious
He was a punk, she did ballet, what more can I say
He wanted her, she'd never tell secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose, they had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a skater boy, she said see you later boy, he wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face, but her head was up in space, she needed to come back down to earth

Five years from now, she sits at home, feeding the baby she's all alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees, skater boy rockin' up MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know & they've all got tickets to see his show
She tags along, stands in the crowd, looks up at the man that she turned down

He was a skater boy, she said see you later boy, he wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a super star, slamming 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, slamming on his guitar, does your pretty face see what he's worth

Sorry girl but you missed out, well tough luck that boy's mine now
We are more than just good friends, this is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see, see the man that boy could be
There is more that meets the eye, I see the soul that is inside

He's just a boy & I'm just a girl, can I make it any more obvious
We are in love, haven't you heard, how we rock each others world

I'm with the skater boy, I said see you later boy, I'll be back stage after the show
I'll be at the studio, singing the song we wrote about a girl you used to know
I'm with the skater boy, I said see you later boy, I'll be back stage after the show
I'll be at the studio, singing the song we wrote about a girl you used to know
