Skinhead 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.
There she was
Swinging down the high street, yeah
Hair cropped short, butts and perm
I couldn't believe my eyes,
Like a story out of a book
She was my height
My weight
My size
She wore (her braces and blue jeans)
Skinhead girl(x4)
She was mine
I made up my mind
Was gonna be corageous, yeah
Her head on my hand
And touch her gentle
She looked at me
And smiled
I know that was for real
She was my height
She wore (her braces and blue jeans)
