Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, uh
Hey pretty boy, whatcha talkin' 'bout
With your big mouth? Saying you're breaking up with me
I dunno why, 'cause in my mind
We've been over for a week
Don't go telling all of my friends
That I'm crazy and I'm mean
You don't wanna start, you don't wanna play this game
It's up to you how you want this to go
Don't light the fuses you want me to blow
I might look sweet, but you don't want to know
You don't wanna know, you don't wanna know, hey
Take it from my mom, take it from my dad
Take it from all my friends that you
Might not want to mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
We can play it cool, or we can make a scene
I'll put you on the cover of a magazine
You don't wanna mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
You could be a hero, or a zero
Or a weirdo, or the one that got away
Pick your poison, either way I'll be okay
I can't be sorry that I made you sad
It's not my fault that you had to be bad
Keep telling lies if you wanna see mad
You wanna see mad, you wanna see mad
Take it from my mom, take it from my dad
Take it from all my friends that you
Might not want to mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
We can play it cool, or we can make a scene
I'll put you on the cover of a magazine
You don't wanna mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
I know how to make a boy cry!
Yeah, yeah, uh
Do what you gotta do
My mascara's waterproof
Say what you gotta say
No black lines running down my face
Do what you gotta do
My mascara's waterproof
Say what you gotta say
No black lines running down my face!
All my friends that you might not want to mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
We can play it cool, or we can make a scene
I'll put you on the cover of a magazine
You don't wanna mess with me
I know how to make a boy cry
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
I know how to make a boy cry
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
I know how to make a boy cry
