Faded rock band the Rubinoos is suing Avril Lavigne for plagiarism, saying her hit "Girlfriend" sounds like their
"I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend." The choruses are particularly similar, the Rubinoos claim, with their "Hey, hey, you, you, I wanna be your boyfriend" virtually identical to her "Hey, hey, you, you, I want to be your girlfriend."
Naturally Avril claims innocence. "All songs share similar lyrics and emotions," she says on her website. "As humans we speak one language."
Her representatives wouldn't clarify whether she meant the language of love or Spanish.
