I'm that girl
You think that's got it figured out
But I walk around with a head full of doubt
The crulest 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 and sees all that I'm not
Wish I could jump off
That reckless train of thought
La da de, la de da

Well it's a cruel, cruel world
For Collie and her golden homecoming crown
For Penny's dirty secret getting
Spread all over town
For Hannah and her skinny jeans
So damn scared to eat

Well the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys, they never call
And I guess we're all
The same after all
Nervous girls

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

For Heather waiting tables
Tryna pick up from the past
For Jenny with that diamond ring
And a vow that didn't last
For Alice turning thirty
Lookin' through that lookin' glass

Well the DJ haunts the halls
And the boys, they never call
And I guess we're all
The same after all
Nervous girls

I'm scared
And I'm brave
Or somewhere between the two
I'm beautifully strong
And tragically confused
Yeah, I'm that girl
That's just like you

Well the DJ haunts the halls
And when the boys finally call
We're not sure that
We want 'em after all

Nervous girls
Nervous girls
Nervous girls
Nervous girls
