Where is your boy tonight?
I hope, he is a gentleman..
And maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town..

*well I think the narrorator was kind of an outcast and he was dating this girl until she dumped him for the towns "golden boy" he thaught she was different than all the other girls who liked this guy and he is very dissapointed that she turns into a "sell out"*

When I wake up-
I'm willing to take my chances on
The hope I forget that you hate him more than you notice I wrote this for you (for you, So)

*well here it gets kinda confusing and I'm not 100% sure but I think he is saying that even when they were dating she would just talk about all the things she disliked about this guy and she has spent so much time hating him that she doesn't even realize he wrote a song for her*

You Need Him .. I could Be Him
I could be an accident but I'm still tryin
And that's more than I can say for him

*she needs a "perfect" clean cut boyfriend and he is so in love that he is willing to change himself to be with her*

Where Is your boy tonight?
I hope, He is a gentleman..
And maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town

Someday I'll appreciate in value
Get off my ass and call you
In the mean time I'll sport my brand new fashion
Of waking up with pants off at four in the afternoon

*one da he will come out of his depresion and do something about his feelings for her instead of stayig in bed all day*

You need him .. I could be him
I could be an accident but I'm still tryin
And that's more than I can say for him
