Lyrics for The Socialites

I think she's the prettiest lady I've ever seen Her hair it has meaning and volume and such a shine Sometimes, I think maybe I could go and talk to her Her eyes, they look lonely for all way yeah and inner Oh baby, it's such a lie to act so nice Will never begin to let you in They'll act surprised, apologize We'll never let on the face you wear is wrong I'm gonna try combing my hair in a thousand ways Maybe he will notice and maybe look my way Oh baby, the other guys who act so nice Will never begin to let you in Stars in their eyes, they'll apologize We'll never let on When you meet someone real But they don't know where I'm going It's not impossible to show her To show it, to open up A socialite to act so nice We'll never begin to let you in They'll act surprised, they'll a峁梠logize Won't ever let on, the face you wear is all wrong I'm glad they're the ones on the other side of the glass Who knows what my spirit is worth in cold hard cash Oh baby
