He Left You for a Punk Rock Girl

He said he met her in art class, he’s such an art fag
He was your date for Modest Mouse but now you’re going stag
It seems they both like all the same stupid little punk rock groups, right?
What happens when the bands slow down as they all eventually do?
He’ll remember how your lip ring sparkled
And he’ll remember the time you had your hair dyed charcoal
For Halloween so you could dress up like Meg from The Family Guy
It’s him that’s not good enough if you were to ask I
So he left you for a puck rock girl
When you could have anyone else
And if he’s fucking that punk rock girl
He’s really only fucking himself
He rode his skateboard but he barely ever rode you
Boarding’s cool and all, but you needed attention too
You went out and bought a new pink jacket just to try to catch his eye
And I hear it looks awesome, but save it for another guy
One that appreciates everything you’ve got to offer
Maybe one that has the same morals as you
He didn’t want to get married and that’s his prerogative
But listen to what I’m saying, it’s imperative
He left you for a puck rock girl
When you could have anyone else
And if he’s fucking that punk rock girl
He’s really only fucking himself
College is the time for us to experiment
I know he hurt you, but I doubt that’s what he meant
He needs to try out girls and boys and marionettes
One day you are gonna move to New York, New York
And he left you for a puck rock girl
When you could have anyone else
And if he’s fucking that punk rock girl
He’s really only fucking himself
