I’m the girl, I’m the foil
I’m the fool that made you sweat
I’m in love in November and I didn’t get out of bed
Until I’d waited, anticipated
You’d come around
You’re the jack, you’re the tom
You’re the rebel for your cause
You’re in love and I think it’s wrong
While you still proudly flash your flaws
And she’ll be waiting, anticipating
You’ll come around
And I’m still here, hanging around
Pretending I don’t care just what happens to you
But it’s a lie; you really make me angry
And still all I want to do is get as close to you
As you’ll let me get
If you’re a prince, I’m a witch
And I would cast on you my spell
But you’re a cad and I’m naïve
Through my savings down the wishing well
Because I’ve waited, anticipated
You’ll come around
If you’re a prince, I’m a witch
I would cast on you my spell
But you’re a cad and I’m naïve
Through my magic down the wishing well
Because I’ve waited, anticipated
You’d come around
