The Word Girl

To do what I should do

To long for you to hear

I open up my heart

And watch her name appear

A word for you to use (Use)

A girl without a cause

A name for what you lose

When it was never yours

The first time, baby, that I came to you

Well, I'd do things that you want me to

The second time, baby, that I came to you

But, oh, you found my love for you

The third time, baby, that I came to you

Oh-ho-ho, I knew

The last time, baby, that I came to you

Oh, how your flesh and blood became the word

A name a girl outgrew

The girl was never real

She stands for your abuse

The girl is no ideal

It's a word for what you do

In a world of broken rules

She found a place for you

Along her chain of fools

The first time, baby, that I came to you

Well, I'd do things that you want me to

The second time, baby, that I came to you

But, oh, you found my love for you

The third time, baby, that I came to you

Oh-ho-ho, I knew

The last time, baby, that I came to you

Oh, how your flesh and blood became the word

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how your flesh and blood

Oh, how

Oh, how

Oh, how
