Me & Ricky

I met Ricky senior year in high school

He moved from Seattle that fall

In school I was invisible, but

Ricky changed all that

We started dating, and I'm not overstating

When I say we were perfectly matched

In the classrooms, and hallways

It was me and Ricky always

Permanently attached

And it was

Me and Ricky

Every lunch hour

Holding hands in the Caf

Me and Ricky

Mockin' the teachers

You should have heard us laugh

Me and Ricky

Hot and sticky

At the back of the bus

I knew if things got tricky, for me and Ricky

We would always have us

Before Ricky, I never had a boyfriend

Guys just never saw me that way

So when Ricky set his eyes on me

Well, I fell fast and hard

(Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah)

If Ricky beckoned, I'd be there in a second

For him I changed my wardrobe and hair

My friends, they were wary

Found Ricky kind of scary

But they were jealous, I'd swear

And it was

Me and Ricky

Cutting classes

Getting high in the john

Me and Ricky

Stuck in detention

Trying not to let on

Me and Ricky

Grabbing a quickie

Round the back of the gym

And there was panting, and frenching

And needs that needed quenching

And Jesus, I needed him

People told me, that Ricky was bad news (Bad news)

They said ditch him and run (Run!)

Far too often good women throw their lives out to men

(I'm nothing without you)

But, Ricky told me that I was who he lived for

He said I was the one

(He said I was the one)

And Ricky, he loved me

He said that he loved me

So I let him love me

Again and again

And again and again and again

And again!

Ricky left me

In fact he left completely

I woke up one day, he was gone

Took my wallet, my laptop

My jewelry, my phone, and my dreams

To prove that he was here

Ricky left a souvenir

A little gift that can't be returned

For once I was clever

Got rid of him forever

Lesson painfully learned

And now there's

No more Ricky

No more reminder

No more life laid to waste

No more Ricky

One simple procedure

And now that memory's erased

Now I'm picky, with guys I meet like Ricky

Now I'll make a new start

They can hug me, and squeeze me

Do everything to please me

Or cut me, and use me

And mentally abuse me

They can think they're connected

But I'll always be protected

'Cause

They'll never enter my heart

Ricky left with that part
