I've never been to jail, but Hell, I wouldn't put it past me
[Chorus]
GSo,  Amif you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
Your Fcardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
With Amperfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
And FI ain't nothing less or nothing more, so Gbaby, if you want the girl next door
[Post-Chorus]
Then go next Amdoor and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
And don't call Fme when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
Then go nexAmt door

[Post-Chorus]

Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
