Lyrics
Hey 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.
Hey girl, you've got a smart way about you
that makes me wish that
that I was smart enough for you.
Hey girl, you've got a fine laugh,
and I think that I could get used to that.
And you're already used to laughing at me.
So what if your friends think I'm crazy, well
I wasn't trying to impress those girls anyway.
They're all theory, no action,
and where I'm from we live
like it's the latest attraction.
Hey girl, you've got a short fuse,
and I've got designs on lighting you up,
and setting you off,
and watching you burn for me.
The world lives for the weekend
Well, I'll watch as my weeks
bleed right into them
Without a line to divide what is theirs
and what is mine
So what if your friends think I'm crazy, well
I wasn't trying to impress those girls anyway.
They're all theory, no action,
and where I'm from we live
like it's the latest attraction.
And go on, go on, your cruel intentions
Won't solve your problems,
everyone's gotta get bottom
bottomed out in the long run
and those are the times you need love.
