"Teenage Sequencer" lyrics

"Teenage Sequencer"

You said to meet by the gym after school before volleyball
Your grin poked through the door and we met lips
As electric as the kiss was
The way you told me no
When I leaned in for another thrilled me more

There goes nature
Pulling me along like a sequencer
Right on time
Turning me into a teenager
Will I always be a teenager now

Oh I had a hard time falling asleep that night
Then woke up anxious to get to school
And exchange some sweet nothin
But when I saw you in the hall
Without an explanation
You called it off

There goes nature
Pulling me along like a sequencer
Right on time
Turning me into a teenager
I don't wanna be a teenager now

Four breakups later
On the last day of school
You pulled me aside
And I tried to play it cool
You'd watched me all year
And you knew Bill was wrong
And you wished you had stayed through
The end of our song
