Lyrics
Pretty Little Thing
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.
My mind’s straight, head braced then I'm caught off guard
You're dressed up pretty face girl you make it hard
You trendsetter, wrote a dirty little letter
Saying life could be better if you were here from the start
You make a living as a singer in a dirty little bar
You've never taken any shit from men who take it too far
You've got a back bone baby, driving me a little crazy
Hoped that you could rough me up
And take me home with you tonight
You always said that we could make it if we tried
If we tried
They say the grass is greener on the other side
It’s a lie
My minds raced, head spaced, gotta pick up the pace
My brains fried, gotta make up my mind
To turn attention to the last known intervention
Where she broke my inhibition, hung me out there to dry
She's got a head stone made, engraved with my name
Grave dug for my body to be laid
I must stress upon the sins that I confessed before I die
I only hope I make it out of here alive
You always said that we could make it if we tried
If we tried
They say the grass is greener on the other side
It’s a lie
She's such a pretty little girl
She's such a pretty little girl
She's such a pretty little girl
She's such a pretty little girl
She's such a pretty little girl
Head strong in a dirty vicious world
She'll steal your heart, you'll lose your mind
You'll sell your soul for just one night
She's such a pretty little girl
Head strong in a dirty vicious world
She'll steal your heart, you'll lose your mind
You'll sell your soul for just one night
My minds straight, head braced then I'm caught off guard
You're dressed up pretty face girl you make it hard
You trendsetter, wrote a dirty little letter
Saying life could be better if you were here from the start
You make a living as a singer in a dirty little bar
You've never taken any shit from men who take it too far
You've got a back bone baby, driving me a little crazy
Hoped that you could rough me up
And take me home with you tonight
You always said that we could make it if we tried
If we tried
They say the grass is greener on the other side
It’s a lie
