Keren Ann - All the Beautiful Girls lyrics

rate me

All the beautiful girls

They wanna stay late

And finish the wine

In your luxury basement.

They swing in velvet and pearls

And like to debate

Pollock and Kline,

Ginsberg and Corso.

With a slight foreign accent

You drip the paint from a can

And abundantly blush and an invisible sun

But instead of a brush

You wish you had a gun!

Chorus:

If they leave you alone with your misery

Deep in the fire of your fame

You’ll be begging them blind

Give me love, give me love

Of every kind!

All the beautiful girls

They wanna stay late

They never complain

As they lean on my back

They walk in with fancy hellos

To greet the unknown

And redecorate my second-hand wardrobe

With a fashionable smack,

I sip the rest of the wine

While I hear them repeat what upsets me the most

That instead of a man, I married a ghost!

Chorus:

If I leave you alone with your misery

Deep in the fire of your fame

You’ll be begging me blind

Give me love, give me love

Of every kind!
