I am a common white girl
I wonder why Murphy doesn’t have a Starbucks yet
I hear we are getting one
I see it is not happening
I want a strawberries and cream Frappuccino
I am a common white girl

I pretend like I don’t care
I feel like going shopping
I touch my ugg boots
I worry if they will get stolen
I cry while watching the notebook
I am a common white girl

I understand life isn’t fair
I say stuff I don’t mean
I dream of Luke Bryan
I try to get really tan
I hope to get some Starbucks soon
I am a common white girl
