When I was thirteen I liked the boys on the TV shows
Teen Beat posters pasted up on my window
And I took them to the bedroom in my mind
When I was fourteen I liked the girls in the punk rock bands
That sexy lady Lorna Doom, she was my man
And I took her to the closet in my mind
I think I'm lonely but I like it this way
She thinks she's lonely but she likes it this way
I guess I'm lonely but I'm comfortable this way
I know I'm lonely but I like myself
When I was fifteen I liked the boys with the rap
Shooting me with their b.b.'s and all that fucked up crap
And I took them to the valley in my mind
When I was sixteen I liked the man with the stand-up bass
Talking slow in that real smoky place
And I took them to the joint in my mind
I think I'm lonely but I like it this way
She thinks she's lonely but she likes it this way
I guess I'm lonely but I'm comfortable this way
I know I'm lonely but I like myself
When I was seventeen I liked the ladies in the ad
Strutting swiftly what I know I never had
And I took them to the Paris in my mind
Now I'm eighteen and I like the ones without a face
Getting off in that real dirty place
And I take them to Western or is it Vine?
I think I'm lonely but I like it this way
She thinks she's lonely but she likes it this way
I guess I'm lonely but I'm comfortable this way
I know I'm lonely but I like myself
Nineteen, shit
Twenty, peaked
Twenty-one, I ain't done
So I take them to Western or is it Vine?
I think I'm lonely but I like it this way
She thinks she's lonely but she likes it this way
I guess I'm lonely but I'm comfortable this way
I know I'm lonely but I like myself
