Song lyrics
I saw a spider, I didn't scream 
'Cause I can belch the alphabet, just double-dog-dare me 
And I chose guitar over ballet 
And I'll take these suckers down, 'cause they just get in my way 

The way you look at me 
Is kinda like a little sister 
You high-five your goodbyes 
And it leaves me nothing but blisters 

So I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys 
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight 
That I just wanna be one of the girls 
Pretty in pearls, not one of the boys 

So over summer, something changed 
I started reading "Seventeen" and shaving my legs, 
And I study "Lolita" religously. 
And I walked right into school and caught you staring at me 

'Cause I know what you know 
But now you're gonna have to take a number 
It's okay, maybe one day 
But not until you give me my diamond ring 

'Cause I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys 
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight 
That I just wanna be your homecoming queen 
Their poster dream, not one of the boys 

I wanna be a flower, not a dirty weed 
I wanna smell like roses, not a baseball team 
And I swear maybe one day 
You're gonna wanna make out, make out, make out with me 

(Don't wanna be) 
Don't wanna be 
(Don't wanna be) 
Don't wanna be 
(Don't wanna be) 

'Cause I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys 
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight 
That I just wanna be one of the girls 
Pretty in pearls, not one of the boys

i really identify myself with this song so much
i am typically the tomboy but then i think i somehow changed into the fun "pretty" girl and my best guy friend told me he liked me.
I love this song VERY VERY MUCH!
