Me First and the Gimme Gimmes - Only The Good Die Young lyrics
Come out Virginia don't let me wait
Catholic girls start much too late
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one
Well, they showed you a statue and told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
But they never told you the price you would pay
For things that you might have done
Only the good die young, only the good die young
Only the good die young, only the good die young
You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
But that would never hurt no one
Well, come on Virginia show me a sign
Send up a signal, I'll throw you the line
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
Never lets in the sun
Only the good die young, only the good die young
Only the good die young, only the good die young
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmationMe First and the Gimme Gimmes - Only The Good Die Young - http://motolyrics.com/me-first-and-the-gimme-gimmes/only-the-good-die-young-lyrics.html
You got a brand new soul and a cross of gold
But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information
You never thought of me
When you considered trying sodomy
They say there's a heaven for those who'll wait
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
I'd rather laugh with the punks than cry with the saints
Smokers have much more fun
Only the good die young, only the good die young
Only the good die young, only the good die young (yeah)
You say your mother told you all
That I could give you was some mild abrasions
She never cared for me
But did she ever say a prayer for me
Well come out, come out, Virginia don't let me wait
Catholic girls start much too late
Sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one
Only the good die young, only the good die young
Only the good die young, only the good die young
Only the good, yeah, only the good die young
Only the good die young, only the good die young (yeah....)
