Only A Girl - Redd Kross

She’s only a girl

And her voice is peculiar

And her eyes are strange

She’s prone to be willful

You try to cheer her up some

But she’s impervious to change

She’s dresses in black all of the time

Wears an orthopedic shoe

It’s some sort of uglification thing she’s into

She’s a hundred and ten

Maybe five foot five

She don’t eat meat

But she’ll eat you alive

She’s only a girl

But she’s big time

She’s only a girl

And I’ll tell you about her

At least all that I know

She’s from South Carolina

And she came out here

A few years ago

She waits on tables

Works in a bank

Volunteers at the zoo

She sure ain’t lazy

But she’s very young

That’s why I called you

Now that you’ve seen her, what do you think?

Uh-huh

Yeah

Etc…

Love is blind

And deaf as well

But I love this girl

Can’t you tell?

She’s only a girl

And she loves me

Why would someone

Beautiful as she

Love someone old like me

Maybe it’s the money

Jeez, I never thought of that

God damn it
