you've got a new girl
her eyes a blazing red
she's beautiful, honestly
i wish it were me instead
you're in my math class
and i'm always ahead
and a girl ends up helping
i wish it were me instead
it's crazy to think,
i can remember what you said
now other girls listen
i wish they were me instead
and when I'm laying
down in my bed
i think of you and her
i wish it were me instead
soon you'll grow up
and be a newly wed
she'll be gorgeous
i wish it were me instead
and one day in the future
you'll probably end up dead
and i'll be wishing
that it were me instead
