vodka orange juice

My friend drove me to the party

In her red velvet dress

She's always looking at her best

For the tall and pretty boys

I'm shaking to the core now

These things get the best of me

These goddamn kids can be so mean (can be so mean)

Now here comes James with the long brown hair

A sense of bitterness fills the air

He sees me standing next to the girls

And he shakes his head

So smug he towers over me

I'm scared he's gonna' try and cause a scene

So I tell him

Patiently (patiently)

It took me a while

To be where I am now

I learnt how to fight back

You don't even wanna know how

He then smirks slowly

And he pats my back

He says

The girls want a real boy

And you're not that

The girls want a real boy

And you're not that

Now everybody's dancing

And I'm just sitting in the corner

With my vodka orange juice (vodka orange juice)

I never should have come here

But I don't have a ride home

And it's all thanks to you

Now I don't blame you James but I can't help the way I am

I didn't sign up for this life but I'm doing the best that I can

And it gets hard sometimes

Boy, I've tried to commit suicide multiple times

It took me a while

To be where I am now

I learnt how to fight back

You don't even wanna know how

Still I look in the mirror

And another looks back

She says, "The girls want a real boy"

She said, "The girls want a real boy"

Now everybody's dancing

And I'm just sitting in the corner

With my vodka orange juice

I never should have come here

But I don't have a ride home

And it's all thanks to you

Now everybody's dancing

And I'm just sitting in the corner

With my vodka orange juice

I never should have come here

But I don't have a ride home

And it's all thanks to you
