Lyrics
She spent the whole of last summer
Lookin’ out for a six foot two.
She gave them all a good chance
She was cool so she told ’em what to do.
What she needs is a real special guy
And if you knew her you would never wonder why.
When you see her now you’ll see her with a six foot two.
She never takes a chance
She doesn’t need romance.
Her love is – rock hard –
She never takes a chance.
She never dates to dance
Her love is – rock hard –
She goes to parties
With a boyfriend hangin’ on her arm
No-one give her any lip
No-one does her any harm
All the other girls hangin’ in the hall.
She got the boys all wishin’ they could call
She starts makin’ out and someone’s ringin# on the fire alarm.
She never takes a chance
