“You've got style, You've got class
You've got a boyfriend that wants to kick my ass
I made him angry, I made him annoyed
When I sent you dirty pictures from my Polaroid
Sorry about the tracks in your yard
For taking out the tree and for hitting your dog
I didn't see it coming, it was moving to fast
Here's a hundred dollars for the bodycast”
