Prom Song (Gone Wrong)

Boy, it's late, walk me home, put your hand in mine
At the gate, stop and say, "Be my valentine"
You are, by far, the brightest star
I've ever seen, and I never dreamed
I'd be so happy that I could die

You used to say that I was beautiful like Cleopatra
But you the king too so I would say, "back at ya"
I flip my hair and make you stare and put my makeup on
And make up stories 'bout my life and put on very cherry bomb
And even then, I knew that we were something serious
That you would dominate my thoughts like radio to Sirius
I'd see you in the hall like, "hello, hello"
Up against the wall like, "let's go, let's go"

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby
Dancing 'til the dawn, staying forever young
Let's get out of this place,
'Cause we're starting to waste within this teenage wasteland
You will never see my face, if you don't get me out of this place now, baby, I'm not crazy
I'm leaving, are you coming with me?

If you're lonely, baby, hold me, you're my only one
Watching television, kissing 'til we see the sun
So far, we are safe in the dark
And I never dreamed that I'd be the queen,
And I'd be so happy that I could die

You used to call yourself the Don and you would call me Queen Diana
You'd always make me blush and say, "shut up boy, you're bananas!"
You pull my hair and push me down chase me down and make me run
You played me Biggie Smalls and then my first Nirvana song
So even then, when no one's friends were really serious
I knew you loved me by the way you looked in second period
I'd see you in the hall like, "hello, hello"
Up against the wall like, "let's go, let's go"

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby
Dancing 'til the dawn, staying forever young
Let's get out of this place,
'Cause we're starting to waste within this teenage wasteland
You will never see my face, if you don't get me out of this place now, baby, I'm not crazy
I'm leaving, are you coming with me?

I know that they say that all I want is to have fun
And get away from rainy days
I know that they think I've come undone
But I'm in love, I wanna run, run, runaway
I'm leaving are you coming with me?

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby
Dancing 'til the dawn, staying forever young
Let's get out of this place,
'Cause we're starting to waste within this teenage wasteland
You will never see my face, if you don't get me out of this place now, baby, I'm not crazy
I'm leaving, are you coming with me?
