Girl About Town

See the girl running around
She used to play in a band in town
Had an electric guitar covered in stars
The Be-Back Queen of the music scene

She got signed to a record label
Spent the advance on a pinball table
Sold a hundred records to all her friends
Now she's back again

She lives in a flat halfway up in the sky
goes out with a boy through the MC5s
Wears a different t-shirt every night
With Access-All Areas pinned on tight

See her running around she's the girl about town that you heard of [4x]

See the girl lying under the bar?
She used to be a rock and roll star
Smoked cigarettes with Joan Jett in America

She got her picture in Rolling Stone
She was third from the left behind Joey Ramone
You couldn't see her face but I'm sure she looked great anyway

She lives in a flat halfway up in the sky
Goes out with a boy through the MC5s
He'd be ok if he didn't hit her
Or go to bed with the babysitter

See her running around she's the girl about town that you've heard of [4x]
