God Help The Girl - God Help The Girl

There is no way I’m looking

For a boyfirend

There is no way I’m looking

For a scene

I need to save some dough

I’m a working girl you know

I’ll fend attention off;

I keep to myself

I love my room,

I’m getting used to sleeping

Some nights I really like

To lie awake

I hear the midnight birds

The message in their words!

The dawn will touch me in a Way a boy could never touch,

Their promise never meant

So much to me You have been warned

I’m born to be contrary

Backward at school

I wrote from right to left

Teacher never cared for me Preacher said a prayer for me

'God help the girl,

She needs all the help she can get'

I sit for hours

Just waiting for his phone call

I’ll eat the chocolate

Hidden in the fridge

I’ll play his messages

Analyse his intonation

Please stop me there

I’m even boring myself

I think of him

When I’m doing the dishes

I think of him

While looking in the sink

This ain’t no play on words

My love for him’s absurd

If he gave me a sign

I’d think about it for a week,

I’d build it up And then I’d turn him down

You have been warned

I’m born to be contrary

Backward at school

I wrote from right to left

Teacher never cared for me Preacher said a prayer for me

'God help the girl,

She needs all the help she can get'
