  • You want the girl with the small waist
    And the perfect smile
    Someone who's out every weekday
    In her dad's new car
    You tell me I shouldn't stress out
    Say, "It's not that hard"
    But I just got a feelin'
    This will leave an ugly scar

    If you say, "She's nothing to worry about"
    Then why'd you close your eyes when you said it out loud?

    Stupid boy makin' me so sad
    Didn't think you could change this fast
    She's got everything that I don't have
    How could I ever compete with that?
    I know you'll go and change your mind
    One day wake up and be bored with mine
    She's got everything that I don't have
    And she's all I wanna be, all I wanna be so bad, so bad
    She's got everything that I don't have, mm-mm

    You want someone you can show off
    Whenever you go out
    She'll wear a tight mini black dress
    With all her friends around
    And then you'll probably spend the night at
    Her nice big house
    And by then I'll just be someone
    You've forgotten about, oh

    If you say, "She's nothing to worry about"
    Then why'd you close your eyes when you said it out loud?

    Stupid boy makin' me so sad
    Didn't think you could change this fast
    She's got everything that I don't have
    How could I ever compete with that?
    I know you'll go and change your mind
    One day wake up and be bored with mine
    She's got everything that I don't have
    And she's all I wanna be, all I wanna be so bad, so bad
    She's got everything that I don't have
    And she's all I wanna be, all I wanna be

    She's all I wanna be so bad, oh-ooh

    Stupid boy makin' me so sad
    Didn't think it would hurt this bad
    She's got everything that I don't have
    How could I ever compete with that?
    I know you'll go and change your mind
    One day wake up and be bored with mine
    She's got everything that I don't have
    And she's all I wanna be, all I wanna be so bad
    All I wanna be so bad (so bad)
    She's got everything that I don't have
    And she's all I wanna be, all I wanna be so bad Writer/s: Gregory Kurstin, Tate McRae
