I've been thinking about yesterday
Been thinking about the one that got away
She looked like Marilyn Monroe
With the Mona Lisa's eyes
She became my kryptonite
And left me paralyzed
When she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
I was her hard luck hero
And she was my grown-up girl
Yeah, when she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
We were gonna change the world
But the world changed us
Time at night would be the knot in my noose
Wedding and funerals give me the blues
I guess that was just an amusement park ride
For Suzie's suicide, suicide bride
The endless summer's over
Don't need her anymore
She used to walk on water
Now she's walking like a whore
When she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
I was her hard luck hero
And she was my grown-up girl
Yeah, when she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
We were gonna change the world
But the world changed
You know, I still see her every once in a while
I lower my head and she gives me a smile
She tells me that I'm looking real good
I wish I could burn her like firewood
Well, I've been drinking my life away
Romanticizing yesterday
Well, everything improves with age
Except the girls I used to know
They cling to the past in desperation
Desolation girls
But me, I've given up on love
And trying to change the world
When she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
I was her hard luck hero
And she was my grown-up girl
Yeah, when she walked by
All the boys got whiplash
We were gonna change the world
We were gonna change the world
We were gonna change the world
But the world changed... us
