Barenaked Ladies - Alternative Girlfriend
You're in an all-girl band
Your futon's second hand
Your parents understand but you don't care
I have a job in a shop
I'm an undercover cop
I make sure the customers aren't thieves
Old at being young
Young at being old
Everything's on hold within our evolution
Chorus:
You're my alternative girlfriend
I love you, and now you cannot pretend
There's nothing left that won't cross over
Last night we slept on the lawn
you woke up and I was gone
Back to the dream I dream to leave
My life with her is a bore
A wron-out metaphor
No more surprises up its sleeve
We're old at being young
Young at being old
Everything's been sold to other's revolutions
Chorus
You live above your dad's four-car garage
With your vinyl and imaginary entourage
if I pull up in a U-Haul, pack up quick
So we can get out of this town 'cause it makes me sick
Chorus
Your futon's second hand

Chorus:
You're my alternative girlfriend

There's nothing left that won't cross over
Last night we slept on the lawn

Back to the dream I dream to leave
My life with her is a bore
A wron-out metaphor
No more surprises up its sleeve
We're old at being young
Young at being old

Chorus
You live above your dad's four-car garage
