Cynical Girl [DVD][Live] Lyrics

Well I'm goin' out
I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl
Well I hate TV

There's gotta be somebody other than me
Who's ready to write it off immediately
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'll know right away by the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise
And I'll know when I give her a listen that she
She's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'
I'll be lost in love

And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl
Well I'm goin' out

I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Yeah I'll know right away by the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise
And I'll know when I give her a listen that she
She's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'
I'll be lost in love

And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'm goin' out 
I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl 
Who's got no use for the real world 
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl 
Well I hate TV

There's gotta be somebody other than me 
Who's ready to write it off immediately 
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'll know right away by the look in her eye 
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise 
And I'll know when I give her a listen that she 
She's what I've been missin' 
What I've been missin' 
I'll be lost in love

And havin' some fun with my cynical girl 
Who'll have no use for the real world 
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl 
Well I'm goin' out

I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl 
Who's got no use for the real world 
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Yeah I'll know right away by the look in her eye 
She harbors no illusions and she's worldly-wise 
And I'll know when I give her a listen that she 
She's what I've been missin' 
What I've been missin' 
I'll be lost in love

And havin' some fun with my cynical girl 
Who'll have no use for the real world 
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
