Nice Girls

lyrics

E
It's a mess but it's mine
It's a mess but it's ours
D A E
Nice girls don't hang around in bars
Don't come covered up in ink and scars
Don't take pictures next to strangers cars
Dont attempt to become YouTube stars
Don't call dogs their kids on Christmas cards

Holes in the roof roof so we can see the stars
Creaks in the floor provide a cheap alarm

I'll make a baby here but you can bury me on Mars
There's nowhere left to Run you won't go far
The eye is watching as you start your car
The ear can hear your thoughts before they start
The arm can reach within your heart of hearts
The mind will not forget your favorite part
You'll meet your master in the shopping cart

I'm a modern man, I order what I can
2 day shipping from the promised land
5 star reviews suggest a foreign scam
A bag in a box in a box for a pair of socks
Can't bother to drive to the shop for a pair of pants
Can't accept that I'm less than a grain of sand
My desires can't be found within the plan
