You know I used to be a bad girl,
I got busy in the bathroom at my high school prom.
Yeah, I used to be a dancer at the local strip club,
But now I know my right wing from my wrong.
Yeah-yeah, I really used to be a bad girl,
I had a threesome with my sister and her boyfriend Tom.
I know I used to be a real wild child,
But now I am a Volvo-driving soccer mom.
Nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom, nana-nana nana-nana.

I really used to be a bad girl,
I got busted for possession of my wizard-shaped bong.
I used to love to do the things they'd tell me not to do,
But now I'm different, now I sing a new song.
I really used to be a bad girl,
I got gang-banged in the bathroom at my high school prom.
Yes, I used to be a real wild child,
But now I am a Volvo-driving soccer mom.

Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom,
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom.
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom,
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom.

Whoa, whoa, where do all the porn stars go when the lights go down?
I wonder where all the porn stars go,
Cause when you need one, they are never around.
I think they moved out to the suburbs,
And now they're blond, bland, middle-class Republican wives.
They've got blond, bland, middle-class Republican children,
And blond, bland, middle-class Republican lives.
Where do all the porn stars go when the lights go down?
I think I know where all the porn stars go?
They all become Volvo-driving soccer moms.

Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom,
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom.
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom,
Nana-nana nana-nana, Volvo-driving soccer mom.
