Lyrics for These Girls

Well, girl sometimes I feel just like a boy Put here on this earth for you to toy around with Like matchbox cars you buy and burn in your backyard Like monsters underneath your bed you ain't afraid of yet But you let me in And I feel alright Yeah, I feel alright Late night girls are anxious and they're coming out to play And I've been stranded on their doorstep for every night and day I only want them more, so sad But when they smile God I've been had I get hypnotized and I wanna go to bed I used to pick up shells cast off the reef One Christmas I got a funeral and they handed me the receipt How many lies I'd tell without my tongue Get twisted into memories until I believe in some And I toy with you And you toy with me Can you stop it please? God bless all the late night girls and they're coming out to play And I've been stranded in their doorstep for every night and day I only want them more, how sad But when they smile, how can anybody feel bad? Makes me tired and I wanna go to bed These girls are better off in my head These girls are better off in my head These girls are better off in my head These girls...
