I'm sure they'll come around and ask you to the movies
That decision is yours to make
Another boyfriend isn't going to make you happy
I'm sorry, maybe you should take a break

All last weekend you spent crying in the bathroom
What happened?
This just shouldn't be so hard

Once they hear you've got a broken heart
They're going to come around and try to make you smile
Little girl you're going to rush right in
Why don't you wait a while?

Once they hear they've got an open shot
They're going to come around and try to make you smile
Why don't you wait a while?
Why don't you wait a while?

I'm sure they'll come up in the parking lots and at parties
You know you don't have to accept
Collecting boyfriends isn't such a healthy hobby
I'm sorry, but there's other words than yes

Once they hear you've got a broken heart
They're going to come around and try to make you smile
Little girl you're going to rush right in
Why don't you wait a while?
Why don't you wait a while?

The truth yeah sure it hurts
But the lies just make it worse
The attention feels euphoric
But the whispers will destroy it
And a rep is such a tough thing to reverse

Once they hear you've got a broken heart
They're going to come around and try to make you smile
Little girl you're going to rush right in
Why don't you wait a while?

Talking loud. making eyes
Like you're a little bit wild
Why don't you wait a while?
Why don't you wait a while?

Why don't you wait a while?
