[Lyric] Girl On The News (Alex Lewthwaite)

[Intro]
Jumped into a limousine…
Jumped into a… ok next time, next time, next time…

[Verse 1]
Jumped into a limousine
Dodging photos from magazines
She says, “Get me out of here!”

[Verse 2]
Speeding down the crowded streets
Searching Hell for a safe retreat
There’s this beach not far from here

[Pre-Chorus]
This city’s not fond of anything
A plasticine engagement ring
Perpetual monotony

[Chorus]
'Cause darling I’ve been searching for someone like you
They should have your face all over the news
With a headline reading ‘Have you seen this girl?’
She’s been off shooting breezes on another world
Words don’t seem to stretch that far
She took a lift home on a shooting star
Now stop the press 'cause I’ve found
The girl on the news
[Verse 3]
I’ll buy her gifts to help fix the economy
My personal celebrity
Our cheating friends involved in
‘Current affairs’

[Pre-Chorus]
Living in clement weather
In/appropriate kinds of leather
In/different states of grace

[Chorus]
'Cause darling I’ve been searching for someone like you
They should have your face all over the news
With a headline reading ‘Have you seen this girl?’
She’s been off shooting breezes on another world
Words don’t seem to stretch that far
She took a lift home on a shooting star
Now stop the press 'cause I’ve found
The girl on the news

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
'Cause darling I’ve been searching for someone like you
They should have your face all over the news
With a headline reading ‘Have you seen this girl?’
She’s been off shooting breezes on another world
Words don’t seem to stretch that far
She took a lift home on a shooting star
Now stop the press 'cause I’ve found
The girl on the news
