Marshall Crenshaw - Dime A Dozen Guy lyrics

(m. crenshaw-david cantor) I saw her sunday Down by the breakers She drove right by me I was stunned to realize That she was riding with That dime-a-dozen guy First they're at the forum Then they're at the drive-in I asked my buddies And they all said "it's no lie She's tearin' up the town With that dime-a-dozen guy" Guess i was thoughtless, careless too I disappeared on her it's true Now i realize i wasted something That i cared about That's why i'm blue He's not good-looking At least i don't think so I just can't figure Any earthly reason why A girl like her would choose That dime-a-dozen guy Is there something about him That my eyes aren't seeing? If i'm not mistaken Then there's no way to deny That i've been left in the dust For a dime-a-dozen guy Right now it's feeling pretty grim To hang my heart out on this limb Now i realize i wasted something That i cared about And she's with him I saw her sunday Down by the breakers She drove right past me And smiled as she rode by Another girl in love With a dime-a-dozen guy
