The Boy Next Door

The kid next door has a crush on me I was appalled - he is just so ugly
The kid next door had a chubby face
He told me that we should go to first base
"Why are you talking baseball?" I said.
He just laughed and then kissed my head
I frowned and wiped it off - yuck!
The kid next door had kissed me - just my luck.

Next Door


The boy next door keeps on bothering me,
So in recess, I kicked him in the knee
He always shows off and follows me around
He stares at me longingly without making a sound
The boy next door always asks me out
He has no chance, without a doubt

The guy next door gets cuter everyday
When I see him, I don't know what to say
Now that he's so cute, I want to try romance
I'll ask him out tomorrow - hopefully there's a chance

The guy next door was such a jerk!
When I asked him out he said it'd never work
"All the time I liked you, you constantly dissed me -
It's your loss now, you've completely missed me."

He was right - I acted shallow and vain
The guy next door liked me and I put him through pain
When he was cuter is when I took interest
It really put my morals to the test
I never thought that he could be really cool
He wasn't cute, so friends would call me a fool
Looking back on those childish days
I vow never to repeat those awful ways.
