Let me tell you a story
Let me tell you a story
About a boy and a girl
About a boy and a girl
It's kinda short, kinda boring
It's kinda short, kinda boring
But the end is a whirl
But the end is a whirl
They were just sixteen
They were just sixteen
When the people were mean
When the people were mean
So they didn't love themselves
So they didn't love themselves
And now they're gone
And now they're gone
Headstones on a lawn
Headstones on a lawn
And when I was younger
And when I was younger
I knew a boy and a boy
I knew a boy and a boy
Best friends with each other
Best friends with each other
But always wished they were more
But always wished they were more
'Cause they loved one other
'Cause they loved one other
But never discovered
But never discovered
'Cause they were too afraid
'Cause they were too afraid
Of what they'd say
Of what they'd say
Moved to different states
Moved to different states
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
Just wait and see
It's not the end of the story
It's not the end of the story
Now it's on to the sequel
Now it's on to the sequel
About me and my friend
About me and my friend
Both our parents were evil
Both our parents were evil
So we both made a bet
So we both made a bet
If we worked and we saved
If we worked and we saved
We could both run away
We could both run away
And we'd have a better life
And we'd have a better life
And I was right
And I was right
I wonder if she's alright
I wonder if she's alright
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
Just wait and see
It's not the end of the story
It's not the end of the story
And the movie's always running in my head
And the movie's always running in my head
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
And I hope that they all get their happy end
And I hope that they all get their happy ending
In the end
In the end
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
It ain't funny, it ain't pretty, it ain't sweet
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
and I'm afraid that's just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
Just wait and see
It's not the end of the story
It's not the end of the story
