Everyone thought it was a shame

For Belle and the boy Sebastian

Belle was OK but oh Sebastian

Went too far again, crashed his car in the rain

He wants to love and he wants to care

But when the girls hear that they think he’s so square

Sebastian for once just leave your troubles home (x2)

She goes to school around the way
G C Am
The boys are queueing up to tell her she’s a star
