She likes boys in bands
She likes movies that she's already seen
She grows her hair out again
Goes to places that she's already been
She likes books on tape, she shoots on film
Barely makes her rent, always skips her pills
She likes cool guys, tastemakers
And she probably always will
But boys in bands won't ever get your back
Sure, they'll beg you to come over, say it helps them to relax
Boys in bands are always out of town
Jumping in and out of vans
You know they'll always let you down
Don't ask me why
You know they're all the same
She likes basement shows
She works the door so she always goes
She drinks for free
Cause the boys in the bands got her covered
There's a different party every night
They got beer and ice and buckets
She likes boys in bands
But they ain't never there in the morning
Because Boys in bands don't ever stick around
Yeah, they sing it like they mean it, sure, they worship you for now
But girl they're only in it for the song
Yeah, They figure out the words, steal back their shirts, and then they're gone
Don't ask them why
You know they're all the same
She likes boys in bands
She likes the way that they look on the stage
She likes to be part of their master plan
She likes the way they spend her minimum wage
And all these nights blur together, all these songs sound the same
But she likes boys in bands
And they usually like her back
So, yeah
