Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts

There´s always somebody taller
With more of a wit
And he´s equipped to enthrall her
And her friends think he´s fit
And you just can´t measure up no
You don´t have a prayer
Wishing you had made the most of her
When she was there
They´ve got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He´s pinched your bird
And he´d probably kick your head in
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
You´re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn´t sad to see her go
Oh no
He might be one of those boys
That´s all pretty and vain
Likes to go in the sunbed
And stays out of the rain
So that he don´t get his hair wet
You wouldn´t want that
At least he hasn´t got a Nova
Or a Burberry hat
They´ve got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He´s pinched your bird
And he´d probably kick your head in
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
You´re better off without her anyway
You said you wasn´t sad to see her go
Of course you were
Have you heard what she´s been doing?
Never did it for me
He picks her up at the school gates
At twenty past three
She´s been with all the boys
But never went very far
She wagged English and Science
Just to go in his car
They´ve got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He´s pinched my bird
And he´d probably kick my head in, oh
Now the girls have grown
But I´m sure they still carry on in similar ways
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
So I´m better off without her anyway
I said I wasn´t sad to see her go
But I´m only pretending, you know
Yeah, I´m only pretending, you know
Yeah, I´m only pretending, you know
Oh I´m only pretending, you know
With more of a wit
And he´s equipped to enthrall her
And her friends think he´s fit
And you just can´t measure up no
You don´t have a prayer
Wishing you had made the most of her
When she was there

No intention of a wedding
He´s pinched your bird
And he´d probably kick your head in
