TWO LITTLE GIRLS
4:57
- you were fresh off the boat
- from virginia
- i had a year of new york city
- under my belt
- we met in a dream
- we were both nineteen
- i remember where we were standing
- i remember how it felt
- two little girls
- growing out of their training bras
- this little girl breaks furniture
- this little girl breaks laws
- two little girls together
- just a little less alone
- this little girl cried wee wee wee
- all the way home
- you were always half crazy
- now look at you baby
- you make about as much sense
- as a nursery rhyme
- love is a piano
- dropped from a four story window
- and you were in the wrong place
- at the wrong time
- and i don't like your girlfriend
- i blame her
- i never seen one of your lovers
- do you so much harm
- i loved you first
- and you know i would prefer
- she didn't empty her syringes
- into your arm
- here comes litlte nake me
- paddling up to the bathroom door
- to find little naked you
- slumped on the bathroom floor
- so i guess i'll just stand here
- with my back against the wall
- while you distill your whole life
- down to a 911 call
- now you bring me your bruises
- so i can 'ooh and ahh' at the display
- maybe i'm supposed to make one of my famous jokes
- that makes everything ok
- or maybe i'm supposed to be the handsome prince
- who rides up and unties your hands
- or maybe i'm supposed to be the furrowed-brow friend
- who think she understand
- here come little naked me
- paddling up to the bathroom door
- to find little naked you
- slumped on the bathroom floor
- so i guess i'll just stand here
- with my back against the wall
- while you distill your whole life
- down to a 911 call
