(Dream on, dream on teenage queen, saddest girl we've ever seen)
Gave up all her wealth and fame
Of the lonely boy next door
Golden hair and eyes of blue
Sold her house and all her cars
(Pure delight, this teenage queen)
Hollywood could offer more
She had everything at sea
All the world was at her door
Who works at the candy store
Came to town to take her out
Very soon she was a star
But she loved the boy next door
Saved his money, bought a ring
(How those eyes could flash at you)
Who worked at the candy store
Then one day this teenage star
Swimming pool and a fence around
(Came to town to take her out)
So she left the boy next door
Pretty house and shiny cars
(But she missed her old home town)
Then one day, a movie scout
Pure delight, this teenage queen
Next day, she was at the door
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen, you should be a movie queen)
He would marry her next spring
Other boys could offer more
(Left it all and caught a train)
But she missed her old home town
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen, see you on the movie screen)
All except the boy next door
Left it all and caught a train
Who worked at the candy store
Who worked at the candy store
She was queen of the senior prom
Boys hung 'round her by the score
(Dream on, dream on teenage queen, prettiest girl we've ever seen)
How those eyes could flash at you
But she loved the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
She could cook just like her mom
