Well she got up every morning and she waited in the cold
|
Got on the stinking yellow school bus and did what she was told
|
And she stared out the window, all the way down to high school.
|
She went to home economics just like all the other girls
|
Making chicken a la king and peanut butter swirls
|
But she knew in her heart there had to be something better somewhere.
|
Well the boys in the school, they were just a bunch of fools
|
And they acted like a bunch of bad bumpkins.
|
But she went out with this guy 'cause she knew a girl's gotta do something.
|
He showed her pictures of his car (pictures of his car!),
|
Pictures of his room (pictures of his room!)
|
Ohhhh, she's on the zoom, she's on the zoom.
|
|
She wasn't meant to stick around here, and be some quarterback's wife
|
She wasn't meant to stick around here, be barefoot and pregnant the rest
|
of her life...
|
|
Well she got up every morning and she waited in the cold
|
Got on the stinking yellow cab, put the money through the hole
|
And she stared out the window, all the way down Fifth Avenue.
|
She went on all the cattle calls just like all the other girls
|
And she waited by the phone in her rollers and her curls
|
But she knew in her heart there had to be something better.
|
Well she ran into this guy who was down at 54
|
Had a lot of gold and chains and he got her in the door,
|
And he knew so many people, and he made her lots of pretty promises.
|
He showed her pictures of his car (pictures of his car!),
|
Pictures of his room (pictures of his room!)
|
Ohhhh, she's on the zoom, she's on the zoom.
|
He showed her pictures of his car (pictures of his car!),
|
Pictures of his room (pictures of his room!)
|
Ohhhh, she's on the zoom, she's on the zoom.
|
Ohhhh, she's on the zoom, she's on the zoom.
