Father John Misty - Funny Girl lyrics

[Verse 1] Funny girl, you look so unassuming Right up until the room you’re captivating Starts to fill with gut-busting laughter And you’re transformed into a five foot Cleopatra [Verse 2] Funny girl, your schedule’s pretty crazy Doing interviews for the new live action Cathy Could you pencil in an industry outsider? Yeah, you’re young but, baby, you’re not getting younger Funny girl [Verse 3] For once your timing wasn’t great I must have missed you by a day But, baby, things have turned out pretty good this way And I don’t think either of us yearns to share the stage [Verse 4] Funny girl, you seem pretty indifferent But you knocked me out when you charmed the pants off Letterman Oh I wish you’d flash that manic smile in my direction And let me lead you to your seat like we were old friends Funny girl
