"The Wrong Idea"

I don't want to introduce you to my friends, 'cause I think they'll get the wrong idea
You're so fetching in that dress, they'll think we have messed around
And though I'll tell them otherwise, I was gone all night with you
What most people do will be running through their heads
They don't need to see that I met a pretty girl last night

I'm 19 and I've kissed 2 girls that's all
You're 16 and you're one, is that against the law?
I never thought that it would come to this
My reputation will be missed
By all the dads who introduce me to their girls saying
"I have got a great idea! You're so different from most guys."
Now that's just a wishful lie, because I am not different anymore
A revolving door you came through
Though you're first, even if you're last
It won't change that I'm not me, 'cause I met a pretty girl last night

I guess I have to introduce you to my friends, but I know they'll get the wrong idea
