Come Back Shelley

Fifteen, at loose ends
1988, She's 5'6
110, New wave hair
Piercings everywhere
And a broken heart under there somewhere

She's left home again
Don't know if I'll see her again
Come back, Shelly
Let us sort you out
Give us one more chance
To figure it out

Black eyes and finger nails
And you are wearing your boyfriend's clothes
Your hair's a mess
Teacher says you're in distress
A teenage girl in a world of hurt

She's left home again
Don't know if I'll see her again
Come back, Shelly
Let us sort you out
Give us one more chance
To figure it out

Moving through the distance
Moshing from the past
Did we leave someone behind?
Someone we can't live without

She's left home again
Don't know if I'll see her again
Come back, Shelly
Let us sort you out
Give us one more chance
To figure it out

Come back, Shelly
Let us sort you out
Give us one more chance
To figure it out
Come on, Shelly
They don't know you like I do
I got the AM, the FM, the blog, the news, the music
