CRUELTY Track 11
Listen
That girl back there is saying the most banal things
She only stops to take a breath when her cell phone rings
She plays hard to get, she lets it go
But does she bother to turn her ringer off? No!
She must be all grown up to be so oblivious
She sighs when she spies the title up on the screen
She swoons at the parting shot of each well-played scene
She laughs a laugh that lets all of us know
She’s the only one here who truly understands the show
She must be well reared to be so obnoxious
I don’t dare swivel to spy the source of her tone
She’s so clearly unbearable, there’s no way she’s here alone
Her opinions synch right up with mine
If I were shallow and sheltered and pumped full of wine
She must be beautiful to be so bland
She must be beautiful to be so bland
