She’s down again, I see that so clear
Something in her eyes, clouded with tears
It hurts to see a friend with a broken heart
But her troubles she won’t impart
So I sit wondering why oh why
Cuz unlike me, her life is not a lie
She’s popular, she’s pretty, she’s clever
I’m a loser, I’m plain and I’m denser
She’s got boys begging for her hand
I’ve got friends who never understand
So I sit here wondering why oh why
Trying to figure out the reason she cries
I really don’t know, it hurts to think
She never tells me about anything
It doesn’t add up, it doesn’t make sense
The need for all this goddamned pretense
So I sit here wondering why oh why
Cuz unlike me, her life is not a lie
She’s rich, she’s down-to-earth, she’s friendly
I’m penniless, I’m shallow and I’m nasty
She’s got everything, her life is perfect
I’ve got nothing, my life’s a wreck
So I sit here wondering why oh why
Trying to figure out the reason she cries
I really don’t know, nothing in my mind
A perfect life like hers every girl wants to find
She’s never been through what I have
She doesn’t know how flawless a life she has
So I sit here wondering why oh why
Cuz unlike me, her life is not a lie
Unlike me, her life is not a lie
That past vanishes in a blizzard of pink and white... 8:00 PM
