The girl comes from Lakeville
Her dad - he cuts hair.
Its a small town in the middle of nowhere.
In tried and tested fashion
She took a plane and headed west
To a city of neuroses, to the one that I love best.
Did you think I couldnt feel it from 5000 miles away?
That I wouldnt sense betrayal in the things he could
not say?
I may be ditsy - I know Im uncool
But Im not like you.
Sierra Bonita
That youll never be.
And I figure for that youll always hate me.
But beauty is affliction
It scars you from the rest
I only wanted to be ordinary, to be no more, to have
no less.
Did you think he wouldnt think of me when you moved
your hand down there?
That he wouldnt think it strange to run his fingers
through your hair?
Is the one thing that you want the thing you know
youll never have?
Three lonely people - its one sorry mess.
Oh my girlfriend, girlfriend
I dig the book you bought
Hey my girlfriend, girlfriend
The record was cool
Oh my girlfriend, girlfriend
You know you made me smile
Oh my girlfriend, girlfriend
I thought wed be friends for a while...
I thought that wed be, I thought wed be friends
girl.
Whatya do it for? Hey, whatya do it for?
Whyd ya make me cry, little girl? Cry.
Oh the books and records, clouds in mind, I think of
you, think of him sometimes...
Whatya do it for?
I wont think about it, I wont think about it
Ever again.
