Eight o'clock, Monday night and I'm waitin'
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me
Her name is Nona, she's a rocker with a nose ring
She wears a two way, but I'm not quite sure what that means

And when she walks
All the wind blows and the angels sing
But she doesn't notice me

'Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes

It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin', "Someone shoot me"
As I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want

She likes the Godsmack and I like Agent Orange
Her CD changer's full of singers that are mad at their dad
She said she'd like to score some reefer and a forty
She'll never know that I'm the best that she'll never have

And when she walks
All the wind blows and the angels sing
She'll never notice me

'Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes

She likes 'em with a mustache
Racetrack season pass
Drivin' in a Trans-Am
Does a mullet make a man?

It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin', "Someone shoot me"
As I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want

There she goes again
With fishnets on and dreadlocks in her hair
She broke my heart, I want to be sedated
All I wanted was to see her naked

Now I am watchin' wrestling
Tryin' to be a tough guy
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in my eyes
I can't grow a mustache
And I ain't got no season pass
All I got's a moped, moped, moped

It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin', "Someone shoot me"
As I fail miserably
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want

'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want
'Cause she's the girl all the bad guys want

    This band is entirely pop, you can get rid of that punk part (if you actually like REAL punk music, listen to the Misfits, Joy Division, the Exploited or something). I laughed so hard when I I hear this "Girl all the bad guys want" listens to Godsmack. Those guys can't write for shit. (I'm sorry, but they can't) This song is all about lust, and material posession. Just think about it for a second. Does BFS have anything worthwhile to say, or is all their music just pointless pre-teen poppy rambling?

    i first heard about bowling for soup on a demo tape that had the video for the song on it. it was halirouse, they made fun of the stained video i hated and the limp bizkit vido that was so over played and icp makes an apperance at the end. it had me laughing the whole time and i loved the song the first time so much i rewond the video and watched it again and again. i have now heard more like the bitch song by them and i love them more and more. this is a great band with a great sound. i love the subject of girl all the bad guys want cause it makes me laug on how real it is and how all the guys want that tuff girl out there. great stuff!
