[Verse 1]
I'm that girl you think has got it figured out
But I walk around with a head full of doubt
The cruelest words about me come from my own mouth
La da de, la de da
Yeah, I'm that girl who wants what I ain't got
Who looks in the mirror sees all that I'm not
Wish I could jump off this reckless train of thought
La da de, la de da
It's a cruel, cruel world
[Pre-Chorus 1]
For Carly and her golden homecoming crown
For Penny's dirty secrets getting spread all over town
For Hannah in her skinny jeans, so damn scared to eat
[Chorus 1]
Well, the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys, they never call
And I guess we're all the same after all
Nervous girls
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm that girl who gave my heart up
Got close to picture perfect or at least close enough
To watch the pieces scatter, then pick 'em all up
La da de, la de da
Oh, but I still believe in love
[Pre-Chorus 2]
For Heather waiting tables, trying to pick up from the past
For Jenny with that diamond ring and a veil that didn't last
For Alice turning 30, looking through that looking gla**
[Chorus 1]
Well, the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys, they never call
And I guess we're all the same after all
Nervous girls
[Verse 3]
I'm scared and I'm brave, somewhere between the two
I'm beautiful, strong, and tragically confused
Yea, I'm that girl that's just like you
[Chorus 2]
Well, the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys, they never call
We're not sure that want them after all
Nervous girls
Nervous girls
Nervous girls, yeah
Nervous girls
