Suburban girl

suburban girl -
the suburban girl
she says so little
and speaks so much,
she walks and walks
so fast and so steady
i can't keep up

suburban girl -
you're so pretty,
i want to walk beside you
but you can't tell
i'm suffering
lagging behind you
or fumbling before you
you hold your smoke to your lips
and sing silently a song of prose without words
to call your own

suburban girl
you have no sex
you are so clean
and yet i cannot see you past the smoke
