What Do Pretty Girls Do? Lyrics

Kirsty MacColl/Pete Glenister)

She was a party girl, stayed up til the small hours

Now she's embarrassing and everybody laughs

At the girl with the face that could drive her baby wild

Now wasn't she the child with everything?

You should have seen her with her head held high

Now what do pretty girls do?

She used to be the apple of his eye

Now what do pretty girls do?

She went through such a lot

And never even learned

That even pretty girls can get their fingers burned

She's got a cabin in a town upon the border

She gets in trouble with the local law and order

Everybody's happy when she isn't at the door

She sends out invitations to everyone

They don't comeMaccoll Kirsty - What Do Pretty Girls Do? - http://motolyrics.com/maccoll-kirsty/what-do-pretty-girls-do-lyrics.html

(And the phone ain't ringing for her now)

You should have seen her with her head held high

Now what do pretty girls do?

She used to be the same as me or you

Now what do pretty girls do?

Well they get older just like everybody else

She never thought she'd have to take care of herself

You should have seen her with her head held high

Now what do pretty girls do?

She used to be the apple of his eye

Now what do pretty girls do?

Collecting all the records and the posters

Of the people that she knew

And they knew

That she'd get older just like everybody else

She never thought she'd have to take care of herself
