Girl Least Likely - The Divine Comedy

Well I knew this girl

In secondary school

All of her teachers

Assumed she was a fool

Because they never heard

A single word from Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green where you been all this time?

Well I asked her once

Why she never spoke

And with a furtive glance

She whispered «I don’t know»

Maybe it’s because

Just because I’m Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green where you been all this time?

Sometimes I think about those days

I wonder what became of my old friends

Of my old enemies

All their hopes and dreams

Were they realized or were they simply given up on

Like Alison

Well I read somewhere

She started a website

And when she sold the shares

She found that overnight

She’d become a millionaire

Congratulations Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)

Alison Green where you been all this time?
