There's loads of people trying to suss out the scene Sniffing about and sticking their noses in Rebel Rebel Rebel But she was the littlest rebel
Blue suit with nylon weave She wears jet-black high heels She throws Nikes down the well She's the littlest rebel Rebel Rebel Rebel But she was the littlest rebel
She consigns them all to hell She's the littlest rebel
Her tormentors jet past in Nissans She says, "Are those cars? Are those shoes?"
She consigns them all to hell She's the littlest rebel Hips like Shirley Temple She's the littlest rebel And she doesn't kiss and tell She's the littlest rebel Rebel Rebel Rebel But she was the littlest rebel
A sophisticate wastrel She's the littlest rebel She doesn't kiss and tell Cos she's the littlest rebel She's the littlest rebel Well ... she's the littlest rebel Rebel Rebel Rebel And she was the littlest rebel Rebel
