no i don't care, i mean hey, i got Penny
there comes a time in every girl's life when
she's truely gotta ask
herself (you've gotta decide) is she ready, to be
going steady? don't
faint
dead away but i honestly believe that one month
should be enough.

no i don't care, i mean hey, i got Penny
there comes a time in every girls life when she's
gotta ask herself
sometimes sometimes you just ask yourself, steady
or not
i mean, do you wanna be johnny's steady
don't faint dead away
but i honestly believe that one month should be
just about enough
well, first of all, let's say you've
dated a boy named johnny a few times and one day
johnny asked you to be
his

Three important rules for breaking up
don't put off breaking up when you know you want
to
prolonging the situation only makes it worse
tell him honestly, simply, kindly but firmly
don't make a big production
don't make up an elaborate story
this will help you avoid a tear jerking scene
if you want to date other people, say so
be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
even if you only gone together for a short time
and haven't been too serious
there's still a feeling of rejection when someone
says she prefers
the company of others to your exclusive company
but if you're honest and direct and avoid making
a flaridy emotional speech
when you break the news
the boy will respect you for your frankness
and honestly, he'll appreciate the kind of
straight-forward manner
in which you told him your decision
unless he's a real jerk or crybaby, you'll remain
friends

i'm head of the class, i'm popular
i'm a quarterback, i'm popular
my mom says i'm a catch, i'm popular
i'm never last picked, i'm a cheerleading chick

being attractive is the most important thing
there is
if you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond,
you have to be as attractive as possible
make sure to keep your hair spotlessly clean
wash it at least every two weeks,
once every two weeks
and if you see johnny football hero in the hall
tell him he played a great game
tell him you liked his article in the newspaper

i'm the party star, i'm popular
i got my own car, i'm popular
i'll never get caught, i'm popular
i make football bets, i'm the teacher's pet,

i propose we support a one-month-limit on going
steady
i think it will keep people more able to deal
with weird situations
and get to know more people
i think if you're ready to go out with johnny
now's the time to tell him about your one-month
limit
he won't mind, he'll appreciate your fresh look
on dating
and once you dated someone else, you can date him
again
i'm sure he'll like it, everyone will appreciate
it
you're so novel, what a good idea
you can keep your time to yourself, you don't
need a date insurance
you can go out with whoever you want to
every boy, every boy in the whole world could be
yours
if you just listen to my plan, the teenage guide
to popularity!

i'm head of the class, i'm popular
i'm a quarterback, i'm popular
my mom says i'm a catch, i'm popular
i'm never last picked, i'm a cheerleading chick
i'm the party star, i'm popular
i got my own car i'm popular
i'll never get caught, i'm popular
i'm the teacher's pet, i make football
bets
