She hides in the library reading
|
Henry miller books
|
'til they flash the lights it's time to go
|
When she was a little kid she said
|
"dad, i don't know why
|
I feel so penniless inside"
|
|
She's on the promenade
|
She's looking for a dress
|
She's locked outside a world
|
Just a manchester girl
|
|
Oh i'll meet you there
|
By the old newsstand
|
Oh i'll meet you there tonight
|
|
Shoot-out at the neighbor's house
|
She pulls the covers on her head
|
She's counting the shots as they go by
|
And pandora's litter box
|
Well it's gettin' mighty high
|
That cat's gonna keep her up at night
|
|
Another scary dream
|
Another cigarette
|
She's locked outside a world
|
Just a manchester girl
|
|
Oh i'll meet you there
|
By the old newsstand
|
Oh i'll meet you there tonight
|
