I'll Be That Girl


If I were you, and I wish that I were you 
All the things I'd do to make myself turn blue 
I suppose I'd start by removing all my clothes 
Tie my pantyhose around my neck 

I'll be that girl, you would be right over 
If I were a field, you would be in clover 
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow 
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow 

If you will not have me as myself, perhaps as someone else 
Perhaps as you, I'll be worth noticing 
Then, even a eunuch won't resist 
The magic of a kiss from such as me 

I'll be that girl and you would be right over 
If I were a field, you would be in clover 
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow 
If I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow 

It's time to kick off your shoes, learn how to choose sadness 
It's time to throw off those chains, addle our brains with madness 
'Cause we've got plenty of time to grow old and die 
But when, at last, your beauty's faded, you'll be glad that I have waited for you 

When you're done 
With being beautiful and young 
When that course is run, then come to me 

I'll be that girl, and you would be right over 
If I were a field, you would be in clover 
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow 
If I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow 

There'd be no tomorrow 
There'd be no tomorrow 
There'd be no tomorrow 
There'd be no tomorrow 
There'd be no tomorrow
