Local Girl - Neko Case

I pass the light that the young people make

How joyfully it s wasted.

I feel the weight of the needles repeat and sigh...

I sang my weight in metric trash,

Tripped the light in Saturn s embrace

And you ll give up with some local girl

While our lights, our lights blot out her face

All of you lie about someday

(How could you, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)

Like you re on a first name basis

All of you lie about someday

(How could you, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)

Like you re on a first name basis

All of you lie about someday

(How could you, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)

Like you re on a first name basis

All of you lie about someday

(How could you, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)

Like you re on a first name basis

Goddamn the time, goddamn the miles,

That take me away from you, and change your face

And change the way I love you

And change the way I love you

And change the way I love you

And change the way I love you
