The Socialites Lyrics
I think she’s the prettiest lady I’ve ever seen
Her hair - it has meaning and volume and such a sheen
Sometimes I think maybe I could go and talk to her
Her eyes - they look lonely far away and inert (?)
The socialites who act so nice
Won't ever begin to let you in
They’ll act surprised, apologize
Won't ever let on, the face you wear is their own
I’m gonna try combing my hair in a thousand ways
Maybe he will notice and maybe look my way
The other guys who act so nice
Won't ever begin to let you in
Stars in their eyes, they’ll apologize
Won't ever let on they need someone real
But they don’t know where I’m going
It’s not impossible to show her
To show it, to open up
The socialites who act so nice
Won't ever begin to let you in
They’ll act surprised, apologize
Won't ever let on, the face you wear is their own
I'm glad they're the ones on the other side of the glass
Who knows what my spirit is worth in cold hard cash
Her hair - it has meaning and volume and such a sheen
Sometimes I think maybe I could go and talk to her
Her eyes - they look lonely far away and inert (?)
Won't ever begin to let you in
They’ll act surprised, apologize
Won't ever let on, the face you wear is their own
Maybe he will notice and maybe look my way
Won't ever begin to let you in
Stars in their eyes, they’ll apologize
Won't ever let on they need someone real
It’s not impossible to show her
To show it, to open up
Won't ever begin to let you in
They’ll act surprised, apologize
Won't ever let on, the face you wear is their own
Who knows what my spirit is worth in cold hard cash

'Her eyes, they look lonely far away in allure' (?)
I think the third to last stanza is actually:
but they don't know where I'm going it's not impossible to show BUT to show IS to open up
"It’s not impossible to show but to show is to open up" (?)
it's sad that a bunch of the dirty projectors' lyrics here are incorrect. this is a great song though.
