(HERE for a mashup making “Stacy’s mom,” “Jessie’s girl,” and “Sweet Caroline” out to be the same person. I know there are other take offs on the Fountains of Wayne tune. Maybe one day I’ll listen to them.)
Regarding seeming contradictions between this and the original:
- “I don’t know you well” — Trying to downplay and even cover up her interest in the boy after realizing his interest in her mother (and being disappointed); maybe should be, “don’t know you THAT well”. - Denial of pool — ??? No excuse on that one. - Father “walked out” — Original narrator is confused/deluded, and Stacy is saying, “Yeah, he ‘walked out,’ but FOR WORK!”
