Lyrics

There's always somebody taller With more of a wit And he's equipped to enthrall her And her friends think he's fit And you just can't measure up, no You don't have a prayer Wishing that you'd made the most of her When she was there They've got engaged There's no intention of a wedding He's pinched your bird And he'd probably kick your head in Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts Oh, you're better off without her anyway You said you wasn't sad to see her go Yeah, but I know you were though Now you don't know what she's up to You can only assume If she's not in front of the shops, then They've gone to his room Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff Bet that's what he likes I know you thought she was different And you thought she was nice But she's not nice She's pretty fucking far from nice She's looking at you funny Rarely looking at you twice Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts Oh, you're better off without her anyway You said you wasn't sad to see her go Yeah, but it's clear you were though Have you heard what she's been doing? Never did it for me He picks her up at the school gate At twenty past three She's been with all the boys, but Never went very far And she wagged English and Science Just to go in his car They've got engaged There's no intention of a wedding He's pinched me bird And he'd probably kick my head in, oh Now the girls have grown Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts Oh, I'm better off without her anyway I said I wasn't sad to see her go Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know I was only pretending, you know I was only pretending, you know
