Melanie

[Verse 1] Melanie Looks a lot like Stephanie She looks a lot like Jane Who looks a lot like Amy Who looks a lot like Emily Melanie I wonder what she's tellin' me now How she's twenty grand in debt, or someone famous that she slept with Or how everybody loves her, what drugs she doesn't take, but I don't really know why I talk to her I guess 'cause she has big fat eyes Swallows awkward silences so you don't even have to try Besides, she never really talks to you She's always looking 'cross the room At someone who just came inside [Chorus] Melanie (Melanie) How the hell'd she get to be the way that she is? (Melanie) How could anyone ever say they really loved her? (Melanie) I feel sorry for her unborn kids (Melanie) [Verse 2] Melanie She looks so heavenly, she's nature's great creation She better be She has no female friends, and she's not much for conversation Melanie Are you really as mentally as dead as you seem? I wanna rip you apart at the seams Just to know what's inside but I'm afraid of what I'll see I know, I know, I know, I know she'll be in the front row at the show She used to date someone in the band She drinks until she can hardly stand Some sucker holds her hand While she throws up in the van [Chorus] Melanie (Melanie) How the hell'd she get to be the way that she is? (Melanie) How could anyone ever say they really loved her? (Melanie) I feel sorry for her unborn kids (Melanie) [Post-Chorus] Melanie (Melanie) Looks a lot like Bethany (Melanie) She looks a lot like Tiffany (Melanie) She looks a lot like Natalie (Melanie) [Bridge: Trungo Ngo] They ought to put you away 'Cause you're too good-looking They ought to put you in chains Before you get your hooks in They ought to smack you around, they ought to cut off your tongue They ought to shave off your eyebrows, send you to a nun They ought to get you a job 'cause you have too much fun They ought to carve you in marble, sell you by the ton, oh [Outro: Trung Ngo] Melanie Melanie Melanie Melanie
