You're not the kind of a boy for a girl like me
I'm just a song and a dance, you're a symphony
I thought that you never would doubt me
Well, I'm tellin' you, you'd be much better off without me
You're just the kind of a boy who would always play fair
I'm just the kind of a girl who would never be fair
It's so hard to let you go but it's only because I know
That you're not the kind of a boy for a girl like me

You're not the kind of a boy for a girl like me
I'm just a song and a dance, you're a symphony
I thought that you never would doubt me
Well, I'm tellin' you, you'd be much better off without me
You're just the kind of a boy who would always play fair
I'm just the kind of a girl who would never be square
It's so hard to let you go but it's only because I know
That you're not the kind of a boy 
You're not the kind of a boy
You're not the kind of a boy for a girl like me
