Lyrics
You never knew the teenage me and you wouldn't believe
The things you didn't see, some pretty, some ugly
And the lovely mirrorball reflected back them all
Every triumph, every fight, under disco light
Come on, girl, it's alright
Come on, girl, it's alright now
Come on, girl, it's gonna be alright now
Well, I guess some boys adored me, but the one I loved ignored me
And caused me in the end to murder my best friend
And though I got her letter, it never did get better
And I got out of my head, then I joined a band instead
Come on, girl, it's alright
Come on, girl, it's alright now
Come on, girl, it's gonna be alright now
Some good times I remember, my birthday that September
We laid down on the lawn and counted until dawn
The stars that we lay under, and is he still, I wonder
The fairest of them all?
Mirror, mirrorball
Mirrorball
Hey
Come on, girl, it's too late
Come on, girl, it's too late now
Come on, girl, let it all go
Come on, girl, it's too late now
Come on, girl, it's gonna be alright
Come on, girl, it's never gonna be alright
But it's too late now
Let it all go
'Cause it's never gonna be alright
