American Girls

American Girls
Lucy’s in New York, she’s looking for some friends,
Clara’s in East L.A.
They used to be good girls in their hay day(époque bénie)
they used to play and shout hey hey hey
Then Lucy lost her heart to some dude named Joe
who tore it right away
Clara lost her heart to God who knows
and she don’t care anyway
chorus:
Clara an Lucy used to be good girls in their hay, yeah hay day
Clara an Lucy used to be good girls in their hay day
Teenage perils led to boys and they started to fade away
teenage feelings led to joys of an explicit nature, oh boy !
Lucy’s on the floor
she’s playing with the boys
Clara’s got her man
A ten bucks gets a lot living
but you gotta pay to play with these girls
With Lucy you talking about hundred,
with Clara maybe more
but one thing’s for sure
you’ll love their nights
and you’ll keep going back for more and more
Clara an Lucy used to be good girls in their hay yeah, hay day
Clara an Lucy used to be good girls in their hay hay day
Teenage perils led to boys and they started to fade away
teenage feelings led to joys of an explicit nature, oh boy !
Lucy she longed for a lover to give her what she wants
someone to love her for what she is and not what she can give.
Now Clara she thought « that’s very nice, but it’s not gonna happen to me.
I’ll live my life, I’ll play the games and that’s, that’s how it’s got to be yeah ! »
Lucy found a man
who really loves her,
Clara’s getting in a mess.
She’s hiding the dou(?) from the blacks in white suits
she’s making it all on her own.
A man in a cadillac tells her to go
« we don’t want you here no more »
She say « you can stuff it, I’m staying here and I’m making it, making it all on my own »
Clara an Lucy used to be good girls in their hay day
Teenage perils led to boys and they started to fade away
teenage feelings led to joys of an explicit nature, oh boy !
