song lyrics
Alternative Girlfriend lyrics
You re in an all-girl band
Your futon s second hand
Your parents understand, but you don t care
I have a job in a shop
I m an undercover cop
I make sure the customers aren t thieves

Old at being young
Young at being old
Everything s on hold within our evolution

[Chorus]
You re my alternative girlfriend
I love you and now you cannot pretend
There s nothing left that won t cross over

Last night we slept on the lawn
You woke up and I was gone
Back to the dream I dream to leave
My life with her is a bore
A worn-out metaphor
No more surprises up its sleeve

We re old at being young, young at being old
Everything s been sold to others revolutions

[Chorus]

You live above your dad s four-car garage
With your vinyl and imaginary entourage
If I pull up in a U-Haul, pack up quick
So we can get out of this town, cause it makes me sick

[Chorus]
