"Girl Next Door" by Saving Jane (Marti Dodson/Pat Buzzard/Kris Misevski/Dak Goodman/Jeremy Martin)

1st Verse

Small town homecoming queen
She's the star in that scene
There's no way to deny she's lovely
Perfect skin, perfect hair
Perfumed hearts everywhere
Tell myself that inside she's ugly

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I'm just jealous
I can't help but hate her
Secretly I wonder
If my boyfriend wants to date her

Chorus

She is the prom queen
I'm in the marching band
She is a cheerleader
I'm sittin' in the stands
She gets the top bunk
(And) I'm sleepin' on the floor
She's Miss America
And I'm just the girl next door
(Oh, I'm just the girl next door)

2nd Verse

Senior class president
She must be heaven sent
She was never the last one standing
A backseat debutant
Everything that you want
Never too harsh
Or too demanding

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I'll admit it
I'm a little bitter
Everybody loves her
But I just wanna hit her

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

I don't know why (I don't know why)
I'm feeling sorry for myself (myself)
I spend all my time wishin' that
I was someone else

Tag Chorus

She is the prom queen
And I'm in the marching band
She is a cheerleader
I'm sittin' in the stands
I get a little bit
She gets a little more
She's Miss America, yeah
She's Miss America
And I'm just the girl next door

Refrain

(Every smile she fakes)
(Every heart she breaks)
(Everything she takes)
(Every day I wait)
(Everything is great)
('Cause everything's okay)
I'm just a girl next door
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Every smile you fake)
(Every heart you break)
(Everything you take)
I'm just a girl next door
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
