Lyrics

There's always somebody taller 
With more of a wit 
And he's equipped to enthrall her 
And her friends think he's fit 
And you just can't measure up no 
You don't have a prayer 
Wishing you had made the most of her 
When she was there 
They've got engaged 
No intention of a wedding 
He's pinched your bird 
And he'd probably kick your head in 

Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts 
You're better off without her anyway 
You said you wasn't sad to see her go 
oh no

now you don't know what shes up t'
you can only assume
if she's not in front of the shops then
they've gone to his room
bet she's gone round in her school stuff
i bet thats what he likes
i know you thought she were different
and you thought she were nice
but shes not nice
shes pretty fuckin' far from nice
she's look at ya funny
rarely lookin at ya twice

Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts 
You're better off without her anyway 
You said you wasn't sad to see her go 
yeah but its clear you were though

Have you heard what she's been doing? 
Never did it for me 
He picks her up at the school gates 
At twenty past three 
She's been with all the boys 
But never went very far 
She wagged English and Science 
Just to go in his car 

They've got engaged 
No intention of a wedding 
He's pinched my bird 
And he'd probably kick my head in, oh 
Now the girls have grown 
But I'm sure they still carry on in similar ways 

Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts 
So I'm better off without her anyway 
I said I wasn't sad to see her go 
But I'm only pretending, you know 
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know 
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know 
Oh I'm only pretending, you know
