Ballad of a Teenage Queen |
There’s a story in our town |
Of the prettiest girl around |
Golden hair and eyes of blue |
How those eyes could flash at you (How those eyes could flash at you) |
Boys hung 'round her by the score |
But she loved the boy next door who worked at the candy store |
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen prettiest girl we’ve ever seen) |
She was tops in all they said |
It never once went to her head |
She had everything it seems |
Not a care, this teenage queen (Not a care, this teenage queen) |
Other boys could offer more |
But she loved the boy next door who worked at the candy store |
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen you should be a movie queen) |
He would marry her next spring |
Saved his money, bought a ring |
Then one day a movie scout |
Came to town to take her out (Came to town to take her out) |
Hollywood could offer more |
So she left the boy next door working at the candy store |
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen see you on the movie screen) |
Very soon she was a star |
Pretty house and shiny car |
Swimming pool and a fence around |
But she missed her old home town (But she missed her old home town) |
All the world was at her door |
All except the boy next door who worked at the candy store |
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen saddest girl we’ve ever seen) |
Then one day the teenage star |
Sold her house and all her cars |
Gave up all her wealth and fame |
Left it all and caught a train (Left it all and caught a train) |
Do I have to tell you more |
She came back to the boy next door who worked at the candy store |
(Now this story has some more, you’ll hear it all at the candy store) |
