Tony Hightower - Dina Doesn't Talk To Boys lyrics

rate me

She sits in the corner playing Scrabble

getting the small words and the big points

She sits with her back to the door

Her cap tight on her head, trying hard to ignore

The attacks from the guys she attracts

Who're ignoring the facts 'cause there's something they lack

And it seems everyday they again have to say

Everyone go away, and they don't

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

She discovered the cafe through her lover's best friend

She didn't know places like this existed

She'd sit and make friends and drink coffee

And just when she thought she could relax and be cool

Someone would plop down and start a conversation

With no invitation, it wore down her patience

She now feels the need to go incognito

She doesn't resent it yet, but

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

An angel with her wings clipped

Some people fall when they're tripped

Some angel's clip their own wings

Desperate boys say the darnedest things

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

She wants to enjoy herself in the open

She's happily involved, don't ask with who

She wants to drink coffee and talk about Seinfeld

Or Alice In Chains or whatever

And no, she don't want to go out

On a date with some lout, she can do fine without

You can give her respect, she don't want to connect

Understand she'll protect herself

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants

Dina doesn't talk to the boys anymore

They don't give her what she wants
