Glamorous Girls - Antje Duvekot

I think i know the nature of your trouble

Yes i was always wishing that i could

Travel with those glamorous girls

One day i’d unravel their secret

Was it just their immaculate hair?

Or how they flirted with boys in the lunch line?

While i clung to my books like flotation devices and got nauseous on the bus

I think i know the nature of your trouble

Yes i was one who suffered their abuse

In my best dress i waited at the gate

In my best dress i waited for hours

And all of the glamorous girls

They will be invited to prom night

And i know that right now this is limited comfort but i can promise you

That you

Will find a place in the sun

You’ll be shining when your time comes

And if you knew this, you wouldnt trade it for the world

With any of those glamorous girls

I think i know the nature of your trouble

One day all of the rules are gonna change

Back then they all tried to not be different

Now they all try not to be the same

And all of the glamorous girls

Will be but a ghost of your memory

And you won’t understand why they bothered you then bet they still have

immaculate hair

And you will find a place in the sun

You’l be shining when your time comes

And if you knew this, you wouldnt trade it for the world

With any of those glamorous girls

So don’t you mind those glamorous girls.
