(Two girls talking over one another:) There comes a time in every girl's life when she's really got to ask herself: "Is she ready to be going steady?" There comes a time where she's got to ask herself: "Steady or not? Do you really want to be Johnnny's steady?" Well, first of all, let's see if dating this one boy Johnny... Three important rules for breaking up: Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to Prolonging the situation only makes it worse Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly Don't make a big production Don't make up an elaborate story This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene If you wanna date other people say so Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected Even if you've gone together for only a short time and haven't been too serious, There's still a feeling of rejection when someone says she prefers the company of others to your exclusive company But if you're honest and direct and avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you break the news, The boy will respect you for your frankness And honestly, he'll appreciate the kind of straight forward manner in which you told him your decision, Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby, you will remain friends I'm head of the class I'm popular I'm a quarter back I'm popular My mom says I'm a catch I'm popular I'm never last picked I got a cheerleader chick Being attractive is the most important thing there is If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond You have to be as attractive as possible Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean Wash it at least every two weeks Once every two weeks And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall Tell him he played a great game Tell him you liked his article in the newspaper I'm the party star I'm popular I've got my own car I'm popular I'll never get caught I'm popular I make football bets I'm a teacher's pet I propose we support a one month limit on going steady I think it would keep people more able to deal with weird situations And get to know more people I think if you're ready to go out with Johnny Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit He wont mind, he'll appreciate your fresh look on dating And once you've dated someone else you can date him again I'm sure he'll like it Everyone will appreciate it You're so novel, what a good idea You can keep your time to yourself You don't need date insurance You can go out with whoever you want to Every boy, every boy in the whole world could be yours If you'll just listen to my plan: THE TEENAGE GUIDE TO POPULARITY I'm head of the class I'm popular I'm a quarter back I'm popular My mom says I'm a catch I'm popular I'm never last picked I got a cheerleader chick I'm the party star I'm popular I've got my own car I'm popular I'll never get caught I'm popular I'm the teacher's pet I make football bets |
