The awkward stage - Hey modern schoolgirl lyrics

rate me

Hey modern school girl what have you done to me?

Hey modern school girl you seem to smirk right through me

Men erected statues for you Men have toppled towers

But I'd walk all across their backs to hand you some flowers

Hey modern school girl you're the one they crossed the oceans for

Hey modern school girl you're the reason men like me lie on the ocean floor

Hey modern school girl you have seduced me

Hey modern school girl you've utterly reduced me

Hey modern school girl I must seem obscene

Perfumed in gasoline for a girl who's only seventeen

All of the worlds pretty things are heaped upon her

They name each natural disaster in her honour

I brought you every bloody head of every bloody saint

So don't tell me you're tired of red 'cause modern school girl I know that you 'aint.

Perfumes and hair dyes tested on rabbits eyes

Cats claws and roses thorns, blood thirsty unicorns

That little girls room, a pink and purple tomb

Hey modern school girl life isn't fair

I'm bleeding outside your door and you don't care

I don't know your language and I don't know your dances

You don't know my anguish but you seem to know my chances

Hey modern school girl you are one to wear it on your sleeve

You may be innocent but your innocence is cruel and naive<br />
