  • I'm a Punk Rock Prom Queen
    Brown paper magazine
    Hotter than you've ever seen
    And everywhere and in between

    I'm a ten-ticket thrill ride
    Don't ya wanna come inside
    A five-star triple-threat
    Hardest of the hard to get
    No one's little red Corvette
    Ain't seen nothing like me yet

    Six whole hours and five long days
    For all your lies to come undone
    And those three small words, were way too late
    'Cause you can't see that I'm the one

    I'm your late-night head rush
    Ace-high royal flush
    Red velvet orange crush
    You just don't impress me much

    A glossy double-cover spread
    Opened up inside your head
    A black-cherry paradise
    Half the sugar twice the spice
    I don't wanna treat you nice
    Come on baby, roll the dice

    Six whole hours and five long days
    For all your lies to come undone
    And those three small words, were way too late
    'Cause you can't see that I'm the one

    It took six whole hours and five long days
    For all your lies to come undone
    And those three small words, were way too late
    'Cause you can't see that I'm the one

    It took six whole hours and five long days
    For all your lies to come undone
    And those three small words, were way too late
    'Cause you can't see that I'm the one Writer/s: David Gibbs, Deborah Kaplan, Harry Elfont

    Like 6 hours, 5 days, 4 all your lies to come undone. And those 3 small words were way 2 late. Can’t you see that I’m the 1.

    6hours
    5 days
    4 lies
    3 small words
    2 late
    1 I’m the one
  • Musicmama from New York, NyThe title of the song shows you just how insidious Satan is. Each word has five letters. So, instead of 666, there's 555, and evil flies under the radar. LOL.
  • Mike from Manhattan, KsI had a crush on Melody!
  • Claire from Oak Ridge, TnKay Handley also did vocals for Rachel Leigh Cook, who played Josie. Really dumb movie, but oh how I love it!
  • Sarah Floyd from Bloomingdale, Ilwhen you see and hear three small words i think they are talking about three letters coming out of your mouth. and i think they are ok. and i still wonder if they are still alive.
  • Aaron from Chicago, IlPhil X from the group Powder taught the girls how to play. Powder is an awesome band!
  • Chloe from New York, NyAdam Schlessinger from Fountains of Wayne also (co-)wrote a couple songs.
