The Party Song

Do you wanna come to a party
My friends picked me up in their truck at 11:30
This thing's at a frat house,
but people are cool there
Reluctant, I followed, but I never dreamed

There would be someone there
who would catch my attention
I wasn't out looking for love or affection
So I paid my 3 and the girls got in free
Shined the beer for tequila and
we headed into the party

And then, in the backyard,
some terrible ska band
Someone in the background was doing a keg stand
This place is so lame,
all these girls look the same
All these guys have no game,
I wish I would have stayed

In my bed, back at home, watching TV alone
Where I'd put on some porn or have sex on the phone
Far from people I hate, down from anywhere state
Trying to intoxicate girls to
give them head after the party

And then, I saw her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She wasn't wearing underwear,
at least I prayed that
She might be the one
Maybe we'd have some fun
Maybe we'd watch the sun rise

But that night,
I learned some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard to impress
with the way that they dress
With those things on their chests
and the things they suggest to me

I couldn't believe what this lady was saying
The names she was dropping
and the games she was playing
She dated this guy who now rides for Black Flys
How she's down with
the wise well-constructed disguise

Now, I'd rather go dateless
than stay here and hate this
Her volume of makeup,
her fake tits were tasteless
So I said I'd call her, but never would bother
Until I got turned down
by another girl at a party

So when you see her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She won't be wearing underwear
and you'll discover
This girl's not the one
and she'll never be fun
You should just turn and run
Because you'll find out that
some girls try too hard

Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
And some girls try too hard to
impress with the way that they dress
With those things on their chest
and the things they suggest to me

Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
