They call me the kid with a cardboard face
Pencil, a smile, a frown that'd erase
Make me a monster with paper mache
I'm the kid with a cardboard face

I drew what I had with some black sunglasses
A girl took my shades and she sharpied eyelashes
A boy stole my snapback and burned my hair straight
I'm the kid with a cardboard face

But I met a girl with a porcelain name
Easy to talk to but hard to explain
What do I do when I'm fallin for you
The girl with the porcelain name
Meets a boy with a cardboard face

She went to an artist to make her look new
To cover her scars like a shotgun tattoo
The colors, they stayed but then faded away
The girl with the porcelain name

But I met a girl with a porcelain name
Easy to talk to but hard to explain
What do I do when I'm fallin for you
The girl with the porcelain name
Meets a boy with a cardboard face

I met a girl with a porcelain name
Easy to talk to but hard to explain
What do I do when I'm fallin for you-oo-oo
The girl with the porcelain na-ame
Meets a boy with a cardboard face

But I met a girl with a porcelain name
She's easy to talk to she's hard to explain
What do I do, come on tell me it's true
The girl with the porcelain name
Loves a boy with a cardboard face
