Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts

Lyrics

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 that you'd made the most of her
 When she was there
 They've got engaged
 There's no intention of a wedding
 He's pinched your bird
 And he'd probably kick your head in
 Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
 Oh, you're better off without her anyway
 You said you wasn't sad to see her go
 Yeah, but I know you were though
 Now you don't know what she's up to
 You can only assume
 If she's not in front of the shops, then
 They've gone to his room
 Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff
 Bet that's what he likes
 I know you thought she was different
 And you thought she was nice
 But she's not nice
 She's pretty fucking far from nice
 She's looking at you funny
 Rarely looking at you twice
 Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
 Oh, you're better off without her anyway
 You said you wasn't sad to see her go
 Yeah, but it's clear you were though

 Have you heard what she's been doing?
 Never did it for me
 He picks her up at the school gate
 At twenty past three
 She's been with all the boys, but
 Never went very far
 And she wagged English and Science
 Just to go in his car
 They've got engaged
 There's no intention of a wedding
 He's pinched me bird
 And he'd probably kick my head in, oh
 Now the girls have grown
 Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways
 Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
 Oh, I'm better off without her anyway
 I said I wasn't sad to see her go
 Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know
 Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
 I was only pretending, you know
 I was only pretending, you know
