[Verse 1]
Another morning, I must get up and go to school
I'm taking too long getting dressed, trying to look my best
Because today is not your ordinary every morning
My high school prom is coming and I heave my daddy's warnings
I'm going to find myself a girl to take to the prom
I shouldn't have too much trouble because I'm
I'm very nice, my mother says I'm very handsome
When I wear my good vest, and mother knows best
I got to school, I straggle through the hallways
I stop and gaze at all the girls just like always
But this time, I must now approach them
Or my daddy might get mad and break my wrist again
And so I chose her, her hair - it matches with her face
She is so lovely, my heart pulse begin to race
I make my way between her friends and to her presence
"Hello, Christine, would you be my prom queen?"

[Bridge 1]
I'd rather die, I'd rather die
I'd rather die, I'd rather die
I'd rather die, I'd rather die
I'd rather die

[Verse 2]
There was a time when I could expect a no
That was before, Christine is gonna have to go
My parents will be proud of me when I bring her home
So now I sit and watch her practice in the gym dome
Christine is famous, she has so many different friends
Will they miss her when she's dead or will they just pretend
Nobody talks to me, I only talk to I
And I been telling myself all day, she's gotta die
[Bridge 2]
"Good morning, everybody. This is Principal Rogers, and I would just like to congratulate our Senior class and wish them at tonight's
Prom dance."

[Chorus]
Won't you be my prom queen? (I can be your prom queen)
Won't you be my prom queen? (I can be your prom queen)
Won't you be my prom queen? (I can be your prom queen)
Everybody has a real good time
