Older Girls

The Roches


They have a language all their own  
It has an I can make it overtone  
Conversation never stops  
Throw the ball up it never drops  

Older Girls  

They have crop of growing kids  
Most of the marriages on the skids  
If the disappointment hit 'em hard  
Seem to be holding high cards  

Older Girls  

Feast your eyes on well made suit  
Dig that hairdo expensive boot  
Maybe the get a little heavy sometimes  
Sitting up late with bottle of wine   
Older Girls  

In the clothing store they try  
On some size they used to buy  
Fleeing there the go and eat  
Something that will still taste sweet   

Older Girls  

As I go from year to year  
Through lover affair and big career  
Wonder what I'm gonna be  
Watch the older girls and see   

Older Girls  

Letting all the trimmings go  
That were part of the big show  
Here it comes the real them  
Forever busting out amen
