She Thinks She's Edith Head - They Might Be Giants

Back in high school I knew a girl

Not too simple and not too kind

We both grew up, but I heard she’d changed

From a new wave fan to another kind

She think’s she’s edith head

But you might know she’s not

The accent in her speech

She didn’t have growing up

She think’s she’s edith head

Or helen girlie brown

Or some other cultural figure

We don’t know a lot about

It’s been years since I moved away

But at christmas I come home

And I saw her reflection

In the window of a store

She was talking to herself

Not too simple and not too kind

I walked on by, it was complicated

And it stuck in my mind

She think’s she’s edith head

But you might know she’s not

The accent in her speech

She didn’t have growing up

The accent in her speech

She didn’t have growing up

The accent in her speech

She didn’t have growing up

She think’s she’s edith head

She think’s she’s edith head now

She think’s she’s edith head

She think’s she’s edith head now

She think’s she’s edith head

She think’s she’s edith head now

She think’s she’s edith head

She think’s she’s edith head now
