The song is about a girl who learns that love is mostly for beautiful high school girls who get married young. The protagonist feels like she doesn't fit in because she's not a 'beauty queen', so she invents imaginary lovers over the phone to make herself feel better. She also talks about how some people who seem like they have everything may actually be unhappy in their lives.
