[ Verse 1 ]
You saw her and you realized what you'd missed
You sat by her when you both had detention
She looked your way, it started with a glimpse
And now you realize that it should never end

[ Chorus 1 ]
When everything is going to the pits
When no one cares to pay any attention
Anytime your life is on the fritz
Just call on me and I will be your shoulder pad

[ Verse 2 ]
You talk to her, but does she listen in ?
You're afraid of what she thinks, of how it might end up
You know that you'll regret it once you're in
Later on, you'll feel a failure when your heart gives in

[ Chorus 2 ]
When all she ever thinks about is him
He wins first, you're stuck with honorable mention
Incapable of acting on a whim
Just give the word and I will be your shoulder pad

[ Bridge ]
In a pickle, with no one to help you out, to lend a hand
But extend yours, I will always be your shoulder pad

[ Outro ]
She looked your way, it started with a glimpse
And now you are convinced that it should never end
