"What She Said"
What she said:
"How come someone hasn't noticed
That I'm dead and decided to bury me?
God knows, I'm ready!"
What she said was sad
But then, all the rejection she's had
To pretend to be happy
Could only be idiocy
What she said was not for the job or
Lover that she never has
What she read, all heady books
She'd sit and prophesise
It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead
To really, really, really open her eyes
What she read, all heady books
She'd sit and prophesise
It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead
To really, really open her eyes
What she said:
"I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an early death
And I need to cling to something!"
What she said:
"I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an early death
And I need to cling to something!"
