Surly Girl

Hey, what goes on behind those eyes of blue
Hey, you can tell me what's been happenin' to you
I'll be your island
You can go into hidin' with me
Hey, everything will be OK
Hey, just tell your friends that you're goin' away
I'll be your beanbag
Go ahead and lay back in me Surly girl
I wanna see you smile
Not for the cameras
But from somewhere inside of you
Cursed with your beauty
What made you get so serious
Whatever it was
Hey, we can go and eat whatever you want
Hey, and then we'll go to a drive-in movie
I'll warm up my space machine
Climb aboard and fly away with me
You can leave your photo book behind
I like you better baby
Let's just get away for a while
And leave this fucked up world behind
Surly girl
I wanna see you smile
Not for the cameras
But from somewhere inside of you
Trapped in your beauty
What made you get so serious
Whatever it was
YEAH!
