Billy got a pink guitar
She said she's gonna play it someday
She'll drive the fastest car, the fastest car
They're telling her don't work too hard
Wait and see if it could even happen
'Cause things won't get you far, won't get you far

But when she thinks, she dreams about it
And when she dreams, she screams about it

Sad girl, big world
Hanging around and doing nothing
Sad girl don't want this world
And she ain't ever coming home

Skating down the boulevard
Trying to outrace the mundane
They tell her keep her guard or be on guard
She's gazing at the stars
Wishing that she'll be one someday
She's gonna make it far, she'll make it far

'Cause when she thinks, she dreams about it
(When she thinks, she dreams about it)
And when she dreams, she screams about it
(When she dreams, she screams)

Sad girl (Sad girl) , big world (Big world)
Hanging around and doing nothing (Doing nothing)
Sad girl don't want this world
She ain't ever coming home

Hold my hand tonight
Sad girl (Sad girl don't want this world) , big world
I don't wanna see you cry
And she ain't ever comin' home again
Hangin' around and doin' nothin'
She ain't ever comin' home again
Hold my hand tonight
Sad girl, don't want this world
I don't wanna see you cry
Hangin' around and doin' nothin'
(And she ain't) And she ain't never comin' home again
And she ain't ever comin' home again
