Lyrics
Common Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You used to live in this part of town
Until you hit the ground
She makes movies where she cries on cue
She still lives downtown
But it's ok
Cause she's common anyway
And the streets are all filled
With the strangers, pay the bills
She's the one with the lazy eye
Promises never come filled
Takes the pills and hides the notices
Cartoon rings of ill will
But it's ok
Cause she's common in every way
And the streets are all filled
With the strangers, pay the bills
Nobody special done a good thing
For somebody else
Taking advantage of that good thing
For nobody else
