[Verse 1] Now the picture had him in it Up the red path To my house In his coal tux Slicked like a wet cat I did my best In a lime green dress [Chorus] I did my best in a lime green dress I did my best in a lime green dress I did my best in a lime green dress I did my best in a lime green dress [Verse 2] He still had friends at school Inside they all had some from his flask And he smiled a toothy smile Yellow and sharp [Chorus] I did my best in a lime green dress I did my best in a lime green dress I did my best in a lime green dress
I did my best in a lime green dress [Verse 3] And then we danced Not to one song, but ten songs It was the scene Where the audience came over To my side Because I got what I wanted [Bridge] I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché [Verse 4] Boys his age Have bodies like knives I was holding one by the blade [Outro] I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché I was in love with a cliché
