Well, she got up every morning
And she waited in the cold
Got on the stinking yellow school bus
And did what she was told
And she stared out the window
All the way down to high school

She went to Home Economics
Just like all the other girls
Making chicken a la king
And peanut butter swirls
But she knew in her heart
There had to be something better somewhere

Well, the boys in the school
They were just a bunch of fools
And they acted like a bunch of bad bumpkins
But she went out with this guy
'Cause she knew a girl is gotta do something

He showed her pictures of his car
(Pictures of his car)
Pictures of his room
(Pictures of his room)
Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom

She wasn't meant to hang around here
And be some quarterback's wife
She wasn't meant to stick around here
Be barefoot and pregnant the rest of her life

Well, she got up every morning
And she waited in the cold
Got in a stinking yellow cab
Put the money through the hole
And she stared out the window
All the way down the Fifth Avenue

She went on all the cattle calls
Just like all the other girls
And she waited by the phone
With no rollers and no curls
But she knew in her heart
There had to be something better

Well, she ran into this guy
Who was down at 54
Had a lot of gold and chains
And he got her in the door
And he knew so many people
Who made her lots of pretty promises

He showed her pictures of his car
(Pictures of his car)
Pictures of his room
(Pictures of his room)
Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom

He showed her pictures of his car
(Pictures of his car)
Showed her pictures of his room
(Pictures of his room)
Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom

Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom
Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom

Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom
Oh, she's on the zoom
She's on the zoom
Oh, she's on the zoom
