Girlfriend

Jazz Butcher


Here I am, I'm just lying on the floor with you 
We had to get drunk, it was the only thing we could do 
Well, it's funny 'coz I thought that it could have turned out quite romantic 
But it isn't like that, which is fine, 'coz it means I can stand it 
Chorus: 

My best friend's girlfriend... I've got a girlfriend 
And you're somebody's girlfriend too 
You know it only ever makes me down 
Oh look, it's easy, 
You come round my house, give me information, then you go home 
Well, it sure beats talking all that foolish rubbish on the telephone 
But I don't know about all the implications of all this, 
I just feel so-so, 
But it's a measure of a feeling that I can't identify 
that I can let you go 

Chorus 

Something's got a hold on my heart and it's making me down 
You left me singing 
"Don't sleep in the subway darling, 
Don't standing in the pouring rain, Maureen."
