You got your head in your supper
|
And the eyes of your mother, baby
|
Locked on you
|
Everybody wants a piece of you, oh yeah
|
And your phone keeps ringing
|
Cause your cousin's singing at the local bar
|
Everybody wants to be a star
|
Just like you are
|
|
You kept your face in the gutter for years
|
Kept your eyes on the road
|
You always felt you were meant for me
|
Baby now you know
|
|
Everybody wants a glimpse of the one that got away
|
Everybody wants to see you
|
And everybody wants to be you too
|
It's funny how they put you down
|
But now they think you're alright
|
And everybody loves you now that
|
You're the one that got away
|
(The one that got away)
|
|
See you were raised in the town
|
Where the kids hang around the Pizza Hut parking lot
|
Everybody talks a lot, no one likes to do, no
|
And all the cub scout leaders at the local theaters
|
Said you couldn't sing a song that well
|
You told a¢æ?em all to go to hell
|
And went out on your own
|
|
You got a headshot picture to
|
Sell yourself to the world
|
You tucked your scars up under your dress
|
Like an American girl
|
|
Everybody wants a glimpse of the one that got away
|
Everybody wants to see you
|
And everybody wants to be you too
|
It's funny how they put you down
|
But now they think you're alright
|
And everybody loves you tonight
|
You're the one that got away, yeah
|
|
Everybody wants a glimpse of the one that got away
|
Everybody wants to see you
|
They all wanna be you too
|
It's funny how they put you down
|
But now they think you're alright
|
And everybody loves you now that
|
You're the one that got away
|
|
Everybody wants a glimpse of the one that got away
|
Everybody wants to see you
|
And everybody wants to be you too
|
It's funny how they put you down
|
But now they think you're alright
|
And everybody loves you now that
|
You're the one that got away
|
(The one that got away)
