It's always been up to your friends
they'll make your mind up, for you
The popularity's gone to your head
but still I don't ignore you
You ran for school election
you even got my vote
But you know my favourite pastime's poetry
and yesterday I wrote
Just because I'm nerdy
and my friends are thirty
It doesn't mean that I swing that way
You've got complications
And a reputation
I wouldn't wanna get in your way
Oh anyway

This morning you walked past my door
Just like a daydream but much more
I followed you round to the store
And i was shell-shocked when I saw
You and your friends were smoking,
It always makes me choke
And did you know
I'd do anything to have you
But I wouldn't take your toat
Just because I'm nerdy,
and my friends are thirty
It doesn't mean that I swing that way
You've got complications
And a reputation
I wouldn't wanna get in your way,
Oh anyway

You said my words were beautiful
They almost made you cry
The markings on the wall were jaded
I wonder why
Just because you're nerdy
And your friends are thirty
Doesn't mean she won't swing your way
She's got complications
And a reputation
Go ahead and stand in her way
Just because you're nerdy
And your friends are thirty
Doesn't mean she won't swing your way
Shes got complications
And a reputation
Go ahead and stand in her way
