lyrics

Postmodern Girl
She got the holes in her jeans--she got the knees comin’ through
She got the postmodern look--she got her eyes on you
She got the long eyelashes--she got you down on your knees
She cuts you down in every conversation--she got a college degree
And she don’t take no flak, you see, she’s been all around the world
She is an independent thinker—she is a Postmodern Girl
And she doesn’t like science ‘cause it’s much too cold
And she doesn’t like religion ‘cause it’s much too old
Doesn’t like anything she cannot hold
And make a part of her world
She is a Postmodern Girl
She got a big boyfriend--he got a big tattoo
She got him wrapped around her little finger--she got a girlfriend too!
And every trend that comes along—she gonna give it a whirl
Ever since she was little she wanted to be a Postmodern Girl
[chorus]
And it’s all so complicated
-don’t think anybody really understands
And she feels so liberated
And she’s do in’ everything that she can
She got the lips so dark and ripe--she got the rings in her nose
She dances like a demon angel--don’t want no ribbons and bows
She got her own way of walkin’--she’s deconstructed her world
And all her friends they want to be just like her
And be a Postmodern Girl
[chorus]
