One of the Boys Songtext
von Katy Perry

I saw a spider, I didn′t scream
'Cause, I can belch the alphabet just double dog dare me
And I chose guitar over ballet
And I tape these suckers down, ′cause, they just get in my way

The way you look at me is kinda like a little sister
Rubbed by your goodbyes
And it leaves me nothing but blisters

So I don't wanna be one of the boys
One of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls
Pretty in pearls and not one of the boys

So over the summer something changed
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs
And I study Lolita religiously
And I walked right into school and caught you staring at me


'Cause, I know what you know
But now you′re gonna have to take a number
It′s okay
Maybe one day, but not until you give me my diamond ring

'Cause, I don′t wanna be one of the boys
One of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be your homecoming queen
Pin-up poster dream and not one of the boys

I wanna be a flower, not a dirty weed
I wanna smell like roses, not a baseball team
And I swear maybe one day
You're gonna wanna make out, make out, make out with me

Don′t wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don′t wanna be

'Cause, I don't wanna be one of the boys
One of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls
Pretty in pearls and not one of the boys
