I've got a girl, she's in a punk band
She steals lots of songs
Change a few chords, change a few lyrics
Thinks there's nothing wrong
And she never would have heard of half these songs
If she had never heard of me
Copyright laws are all in doubt
When she sees my CD's
Knocking on my door, standing with a tape
Of a new song that she's got
All about how, we'd all still love The Beatles
If George had not been shot
And she never would have heard of half these bands
If she had never heard of me
Copyright laws are so in doubt
When she sees my CD's
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says she's my friend
But I'll never ever let her take my Beatles tapes again
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says it's just a trend
But I'll never ever let her take my Beatles tapes again
She tells me all the time
She really loves the Beach Boys' Yellow Submarine
"I really love Pet Sounds, this one is my favorite"
And turns on Jan & Dean
And I don't have the heart to say she's wrong
I just nod and say that's cool
She thinks it's so great that "they're America's band
When they came from Liverpool"
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says she's my friend
But I'll never ever let her take my Beach Boys tapes again
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says it's just a trend
But I'll never ever let her take my Beach Boys tapes again
Now she's on the phone, she's got a new song
She's so proud of herself
It's all about how she really wants a guy
Who'll laugh for no one else!
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says she's my friend
But I'll never ever let her take my Weezer tapes again
Oh-oh, Oh-oh
She says it's just a trend
But I'll never ever let her take my Weezer tapes again
No, I'll never ever let her take my Weezer tapes again
