Lyrics
?This Girl?
Capers Simmons
VERSE I
This girl, she?s got me on a line,
She?s taking her time reeling me in.
This girl, she loves watching me squirm.
She knows it her turn to make me wait
PRECHORUS I
On a second date.
Wait a second, the bait?s
Not really what it looked like from way over there,
But I don?t care.
Let the buyer beware
Of this girl, because
CHORUS
This girl, she?s
Symptomatic of the tragic circumstances in which we live.
This girl, she?s
Complicated, concentrated; I can?t take too much more of this.
This girl, she?s
Mine
VERSE II
This girl, she?s got issues to deal, but
She?s sure that she will come out alright.
This girl, she?s got magic inside.
She?ll show me tonight, that?s what they say
~ PRECHORUS ~ CHORUS ~
BRIDGE
This girl, she?s so fragile inside. I?ll
Be careful this time, won?t even flinch,
?Cause this girl and me have got all kinds of time.
We?ll take it slow tonight and wait
PRECHORUS II
On the second date,
Or the seventh, ?cause, hey
I?m in it for the long haul and, hey, so is she,
So she settled on me.
Let the buyer believe
In this girl
CHORUS II
This girl, she?s
So resilient, I can feel it bouncing back like a trampoline.
This girl, she?s
Hard and soft, but strong enough to try tough it out with me.
This girl will be
All right.
~ CHORUS I ~
