Lyric Negative Girl

She s lost she s late
She s zooming on a couch somewhere
Or high or home
I m not supposed to call her there

I wait I smoke
I stare into my coke
It s happening again
I tell myself that it s over and done amen

Her skin like milk
It s like she s never seen the sun
Some hearts to crunch
Is more like her idea of fun

I know she s ill
I m cruising for a spill
I m hanging just the same
I need to be in the heat
Of her cold white flame

CHORUS:
Another negative girl
At the edge of the frame
Deliciously toxic
The original classic thing - more of the same

She s in the zone
Crying on the phone
I need you here
I m on the street again

Staggering out into the burn of the brain dead dawn
To arrive in time to find her gone

She s on the train
To somewhere up by Fordham Road
Her reptile brain
Locked down and ready in combat mode

Some cash - a key
This guy she has to see
A doctor friend uptown
And maybe she gets to me when she comes back down

CHORUS:
Another negative girl
Spinning out of the frame
Exquisitely limpid
The original classic thing - more of the same

A goof - a buzz
If that is what it was
Then how do you explain
The way she looks when she s
Dragging me out to dance with her
In the summer rain

CHORUS:
Another negative girl
At the edge of the frame
Exhausting and luscious
The original classic thing - more of the same
