My Girlfriend

My girlfriend gets so depressed

She never leaves the house

She doesn't even get dressed

My girlfriend always leaves a mess

She says she's gonna clean

But she always forgets

My girlfriend is there when I get home

Watching movies on TV

Or talking on the phone

Sometimes, I wanna leave

But I've got nowhere to go

But hey, nobody's perfect

No one wants to be alone

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

My girlfriend is so unimpressed

By everything I say

You can see it in her face

I don't say much, I just hope and pray

There's been some big mistake

And buy her flowers just in case

And I don't mind it when she goes out with her friends

And they drop her off drunk

And I take her up to bed

She says, "I'm sorry" and I kiss her on the head

And everything is fine

Until the morning comes again

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

I remember when we were in high school

I took her to the dance

We snuck out to the bleachers

And I thought that I might take a chance

But it never does any long-term good

To go thinking about the past

Goddamn this wandering mind of mine

That can't be happy with what it has

But I'm not mad

And sometimes we still laugh

And when she's just getting up

And the sun hits her right

She doesn't even look half bad

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-tu-ru

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-tu-ru

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

Tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru, tu-ru-ru-ru-ru, tu-ru-ru

My girlfriend gets so depressed

She never leaves the house

She doesn't even get dressed

My girlfriend is so unimpressed

By everything I say

You can see it in her face
