lyrics

tom told me he liked a woman
with meat on her bones
i think he was talking about me but
i don't really know

tom told me he liked a woman
with meat on her bones
i know he was talking about me but
i was 11 years old

why
can't i take my shirt off on the basketball court?
i wanna run around in big mesh shorts
what is it about my body that makes my head hurt?
my hips are wider than my waist, my hips are wider than my waist

i threw some rocks in the river
they meant nothing to me then
he took a quick video he's
probably deleted since

i won't ever see him again
but i remember what he said

yeah

i think about that in mysterious ways
i spend the time trying to know what to say
i lay in bed and waste half the day
he told me i was cool and pretty
he told me i was cool and pretty
he told me i was cool and pretty

anything else
am i anything else
am i anything
else
am i anything else
am i anything?

am i anything else
am i anything else
am i anything else

tom told me he liked a woman
tom told me he liked a woman
tom told me he liked a woman
but what did he know?

tom told me he liked a woman
tom told me he liked a woman
tom told me he liked a woman
but what did he know?
