Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts

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
