Girlfriend Material - There She Goes Again Lyrics

Once when she was seventeen
Before she was a winner
Back when things was still in black and white
Some singer told her she could be
Anything that she could dream
No one told her singers always lie
So she assumed the radio was on her side

There she goes again
Wasting her time with the band
Bumming cigarettes
And lending a hand

Then she was twenty three
Sore about some singer
Til someone left her alone with a book
Some long dead writer guaranteed
Nothing that she'd ever believed
Was worth even half of the trouble that it took
So you can imagine what she thought she understood

There she goes again
Running around with those dudes
Smoking mary jane
To get in the mood

This was all before I met her
Way before I could forget her
In those days every minute was a mess
Well, I'm not saying that I understood
Let's just say it wasn't good
Let's just say it was morning when she left
But I hope things worked out for the best

There I go again
Running my mouth
Saying anything
To keep you around

There she goes again, waving goodbye
She's got a smile on her face, but she doesn't know why
