Song Lyrics

Do you want to
Come to a party?
My friends picked me up
In their truck at 11:30
This thing's at a frat house
But people are cool there
Reluctant, I followed
But I never dreamed
There would be someone
There who would
Catch my attention
I wasn't out looking
For love or affection
So I paid my 3 and
The girls got in free
Shined the beer for tequila
And we headed into the party

And then, in the backyard
Some terrible ska band
Someone in the background
Was doing a keg stand
This place is so lame
All these girls look the same
All these guys have no game
I wish I would have stayed

In my bed, back at home
Watching TV alone
Where I'd put on some porn
Or have sex on the phone
Far from people I hate
Down from anywhere state
Trying to intoxicate girls
To give them head
After the party

And then, I saw her
Standing there
With green eyes
And long blond hair
She wasn't wearing underwear
At least I prayed that
She might be the one
Maybe we'd have some fun
Maybe we'd watch the sun rise

But that night
I learned some
Girls try too hard
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Some girls
Try too hard
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Some girls try too hard
To impress with the way
That they dress
With those things
On their chests and
The things they suggest to me

I couldn't believe
What this lady was saying
The names she was dropping
And the games she was playing
She dated this guy
Who now rides for Black Flys
How she's down with
The wise well-constructed disguise

Now, I'd rather go dateless
Than stay here and hate this
Her volume of makeup
Her fake tits were tasteless
So I said I'd call her
But never would bother
Until I got turned down
By another girl at a party

So when you see
Her standing there
With green eyes
And long blond hair
She won't be wearing underwear
And you'll discover
This girl's not the one
And she'll never be fun
You should just turn and run
Because you'll find out
That some girls try too hard

Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Some girls
Try too hard
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
And some girls try too
Hard to impress with
The way that they dress
With those things on their chest
And the things they suggest to me

Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Some girls
Try too hard
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Some girls
Try too hard
