12. Michelle

Pretending not to care
She leaves me in thin air
A girl I hardly know
Seems to hate me so
Michelle you’re trying too hard

Whenever I walk near
Her friends all call me ‘Dear’
I try to make a sound
They all gather round
Michelle you’re trying too hard

If only I could see into her mind yeah
I wonder what on earth that I would find there
Young girls can be so unkind yeah
Oh Michelle

Standing on her own
I try a friendly tone
Turns upon her heel
Knows just how it feels
Michelle you’re trying too hard

I didn’t know her name
Now I’m drawn into the game
I can’t let things pass by
I have to find out why
Try to talk it out
Please don’t scream and shout
Meet me after eight
She wasn’t even late
Michelle you’re trying too hard
