This Girl That I Know Songtext / Lyric

Laser animator

Add another to the breaker

On a broken escalator

We could get what we need



'Cause it's a night of confessions

Electric digressions

Honorable mentions get a bouquet of weeds



And everybody moving

Like they know what they're undoing

Pushing weight against the wall

In a stifling room



Cities in shambles, untangling tangles

People get together

To uncover the ruins



This girl that I know

I met her at a Minuteman show

(She used to work for a literary journal

But she's really into guitar)






This girl that I know

I met her at a Booker T Show

(She kind of brushed me off

I think she likes movies from France)



Just like a lone dancer

In lonesome disaster

With a chrome ghetto blaster

We just do what we feel



Even if it's atrocious

There's no hope for the hopeless

If there's nothing to cope

We get a rhythm that's real



Like a Tuesday commuter

With a dirty computer

We see the future hanging out

In a monoxide cloud



Habits are forming

Like cigarettes boring

To a smoker in the morning

Pulling butts from the ground



This girl that I know

I met her at a Sonic Youth show

(I like her style, she has got that [unverified])

This girl that I know

I met her at a Jodeci show

(She was looking good you know)
