Verse:
Bb F
I saw a spider I didn’t scream,
Bb
‘Cause I can belch the alphabet,

Just double dog dare me,
Bb F
And I chose guitar over ballet,
Bb F
And I take these suckers down ‘cause they just get in my way.
Dm A Bb
The way you look at me,

Is kind of like a little sister,
Dm A Bb
Rubbed by your goodbyes,
G
And it leaves me nothing but blisters.

So I don’t want to be just one of the boys,

One of the guys,

Pretty in pearls,

Not one of the boys.

Verse:
So over the summer something changed,
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs,
And I studied Lolita religiously,
And I walked right into school and caught you staring at me.
‘Cause I know what you know,
But now you’re going to have to take a number,
It’s okay, maybe one day but not until you give me my diamond ring.
F A
‘Cause I don’t want to be one of the boys,
Bb
One of your guys,

Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight that,

I just want to be a homecoming queen,
Bb
Pinup poster dream,
C# Bb F
Not one of the boys.
Bb A Dm G
I want to be a flower, not a dirty weed,
Bb A Dm G
I want to smell like roses, not a baseball team,
Bb A Dm G
And I swear maybe one day you’re going to want to, make out, make out, make out with me

So I don’t want to be one of the boys,
