Old 97's - For The Girl lyrics

Well she said I know, but I just can't tell Everything that you've just been saying Lucy was there as well in the dark When the kids in the band were playing No one can hear a word or tell What the girl was singing See, she must've been 16 or 18 I'm just past caring She was into the Stones when I was into the Roses She was breaking my bones when I was busting their noses She would tell me a secret I would lose it the next day You're not pleased that you're easy Makes you sick in a bad way And all the while the girls sang La la la la and she sang Kickings for my sweetheart Bruises that I just don't miss And she said, I can't love you any more than this Ah, she said, she said, no, no, no, no Oh then again, yes, why don't you k** me I said when I'm messed up like this Sweetheart you know that don't thrill me Said I would've been there for you if you'd just been a little bit nicer I was dead by Sunday half dead, scared just trying to please her She was getting me pills when I was into her best friend She was chasing the thrills And living down at the West End She was pretty in braces I lived under of her window She said, take me to London Tell me something I don't know And all the while the girls sang La la la la and she sang Kickings for my sweetheart Bruises that I just don't miss And she said, I can't love you any more than this She was into the Stones when I was into the Roses She was breaking my bones when I was busting their noses She would tell me a secret I would lose it the next day You're not pleased that you're easy Makes you sick in a bad way And all the while the girls sang La, la, la, la, and she sang Kickings for my sweetheart Bruises that I just don't miss And she said I don't like you, you can't stand me I can't love you anymore than this
