I thought you were a James Dean rebel without a cause

One hand in the pocket of your blue jeans

Leanin' up against the wall

Like cigarette smoke and old school matches

I would've looked good in your leather jacket

I thought you were a James Dean rebel without a cause

If this were a movie I would be your love interest

You'd steal a car, steal my heart right into the wild sunset

Dancin' on the edge of no tomorrow

We would've raised hell in that El Dorado

If this were a movie I would be your love interest

Instead you picked Plain Jane

Little miss what's her name?

When you could've had fire

You could've have crazy

Talkin' breakout, make-out, kissin' in the backseat

Dang

I was hopin' I could drive you insane

Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain

Oh, what a shame

You picked Plain Jane

Plain, Plain, Plain, Jane, Jane, Jane

I thought she was the harmless goody goody girl next door

That dime a dozen kind of pretty that you've seen before

The opposite of what you said you wanted

A Barbie doll made in mass production

I thought she was the harmless goody goody girl next door

So why'd you picked Plain Jane

Little miss what's her name?

When you could've had fire

You could've have crazy

Talkin' breakup, makeup, kissin' in the backseat

Dang

I was hopin' I could drive you insane

Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain

Oh, what a shame

You picked Plain Jane

Plain, Plain, Plain, Jane, Jane, Jane

Your cool turns to khakis

Your Chucks turn to loafers

That jacket's a cardigan around your shoulders

The rebel inside you has withered and died

And I cringe at the sight on the new you

I'm glad you picked Plain Jane

Little miss what's her name?

When you could've had fire

You could've have crazy

Talkin' breakup, makeup, kissin' in the backseat

Dang

I was hopin' I could drive you insane

Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain

Oh, what a shame

You picked Plain Jane

Plain, Plain, Plain, Jane, Jane, J
