Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was a boy, she was a girl
Can I make it any more obvious?
He was a punk, she did ballet
What the fuck does it matter anyway?
He didn't try to make her cum
On top of all that, he was a little dumb
Honestly, she was better off alone
Now he's breathin' down the phone

[Chorus]
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
She's not a therapist
Don't wanna take care of him
She's an independent girl (Ha, duh, uh)

[Verse 2]
Me and my bitches
We have way more fun without it
Fuck all your fairytales
Shout it from the tallest mountain
Woah, she's in love with her damn self, yeah, yeah
Don't let him fuck with your mental health, yeah, yeah
Now that I'm winnin', skater boy's so parasitic
Suckin' my nuts like he tryna get back in my business
Back in my butt, woah, he'd be lucky just to sniff it
I'm so in love with all my independent bitches
[Chorus]
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
She's not a therapist
Don't wanna take care of him
She's an independent girl
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
And now she's a heavy hitter
He needs a babysitter
But she's finally found her worth (Ah, uh, uh)

[Bridge]
Five years from now in her beautiful home
Somebody else is makin' her moan
Skater boy is alone with his hand on his balls
Still punchin' holes through his basement walls

[Chorus]
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
She's not a therapist
Don't wanna take care of him
She's an independent girl
He was a skater boy
She said, "See you later, boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
And now she's a heavy hitter
He needs a baby sitter
But she's finally found her worth
