Ballad Of A Teenage Queen - mono

Lyrics

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)
