There are worse things I could do Than go with a boy or two Even though the neighbourhood Thinks I'm trashy and no good I suppose they could be true But there are worse things I could do I could flirt with all the guys Smile at them and bat my eyes Press against them when we dance Make them think they stand a chance Then refuse to see it through That's a thing I'd never do I could stay home every night Wait around for Mister Right Take cold showers every day And throw my life away On a dream that wont come true I could hurt someone like me Out spite or jealousy I don't lie and I don't steal But I can cry and I can feel A fact I bet you never knew But to cry in front of you That's the worst thing I could do
