Verse 1 Lyrics:
"You're a little bit shy , A little too quiet
You're the mixed up girl That everybody leaves behind
A little bit weird, A little too bright
But you just might be That little bomb at their side
They'll pull your hair, They'll leave you wide-eyed
But did anybody wonder What Annie might have in mind?"
