Girl About Town Lyrics

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
