Cynical Girl

I've discovered Imeem.com and spent the weekend learning Microsoft Access while listening to Marshall Crenshaw by way of a heavy dose of T-bone Burnett. This song is the one that's stuck with me. I love this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja4NfjEfKMs

Cynical Girl

(M. Crenshaw)

Well I'm goin' out

I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I hate TV
There's gotta be somebody other than me
Who's ready to write it off immediately
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'll know right away by the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise
And I'll know
when I give her a listen
that she
She's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'

I'll be lost in love
And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'm goin' out I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Yeah I'll know right away by the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise
And I'll know
when I give her a listen
that she
She's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'

I'll be lost in love
And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl
