Neil Cicierega
White Bread Boyfriend
[Verse 1]
I guess I'm lonely, whatever that means
But when I see you in your pre-embroidered jeans
I get this feeling, like, prob'ly in my heart
That most of the time, we should never be apart
You're kinda pretty. I guess for now you'll do...
I mean, you're beautiful, nobody comes close to you...
And all that rubbish girls like to be told
You gotta know this stuff when you are seventeen years old

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I'm saying let's turn a new leaf
I'll wear my A&F hat askewly
And we can go, where to? I don't know
But baby, I guess that I love you truly, and

[Chorus]
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
I want to be your mainstream man
I wanna be your typical toy, and
Break up in time for college plans, and
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
(I wanna be your white bread boyfriend.)
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
(I wanna be your white bread boyfriend.)
[Verse 2]
Well, I can skateboard, and I play the guitar
I'll take you out and about in my parents' car
We'll catch a movie, get some McDonald's
Go to a party, let somebody else clean up the bottles
I'm getting desperate, I know how love hurts
I would give up my sneakers and my polo shirts
To be your sweetheart, I am sorta nice
You could do better, but I'll probably suffice

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll serenade you, like all the others
With overplayed Dave Matthews Band covers
Is it the love, or the lack there of
That tells us we might as well become lovers?

[Chorus]
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
I want to be your bargain beau
You're like my soulmate, let's hold hands
So everyone at the mall can know, woahohhh

[Bridge]
(Mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre...)
(Mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre...)
(Mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre...)
(Mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre...)
(Mediocre!)
[Chorus]
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
I want to be your mainstream man
I wanna be your typical toy, and
Break up in time for college plans, and
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
(I wanna be your white bread boyfriend.)
I wanna be your white bread boyfriend
(I wanna be your white bread boyfriend.)
