Girls Like Us

Girls like us like cotton candy
 Plastic handbags, alcohol
 Girls like us sometimes ignore people on the street
 Even though they're people that we know
 Girls like us sneak breaks at Wendy's
 And Girls like us invented Jazz
 Girls like us have no foundations
 Creation myths are so passé
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us might flock to scandals
 But girls like us don't give a shit
 Girls like us pick up the hot handles
 And burn our hands and we get over it
 Girls like us use highlighter pens
 Especially to write our poems
 Girls like us stand back to back
 Just because you know we want to know
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us eat salt for breakfast
 Girls like us are good at that
 Girls like us refuse to hang license plates on our bedroom walls
 Girls like us carry our passports
 Just in case you know we have to go
 Girls like us are most perfect
 When we're biting off all our fingernails
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us use highlighter pens
 Especially to write our poems
 Girls like us stand back to back
 Just because you know we need to know
 Girls like us are maybe most perfect
 When we're biting off all our fingernails
 Girls like us love the calm
 Just before it starts to hail
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
 Girls like us
