Divorcee By 23
Clare Bowditch & the Feeding Set Well, it seems you've got a baby girl To a man who will not love you well And you're walkin' down Brunswick street And you're buyin' the baby's tears with treats
'Cause you look perfect, you look fine And you hold it together most of the time But when the baby's cryin' And you know he's lying
He was the best lookin' boy you'd known So you married him and made him home Dropped out of university All because he said well, honey you're pretty
Yes, you are pretty but you are not fine 'Cause you've forgotten your poor little mind And if you don't start crying You may never shine
Step on out of line Outside the square, I dare you To just not give a damn 'Cause people won't understand Don't let them scare you
You play boy games and he plays girl games And every Saturday, you swap over again And you wonder why he 'Just don't hear'
Are you saying it loud, are you making it clear Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Or are you hiding away Behind all those perfect things that you say?
You know that you don't wanna be You don't wanna be You don't wanna be You don't wanna be no divorcee by 23
Well, is that your best reason to stay? You're worried about what your brothers friends Mothers might one day say
Step on out of line Outside the square, I dare you To just not give a damn 'Cause people won't understand Don't let them scare you
You really should step on out of line Outside the square, I dare you To go confront your man Help him understand these subtleties about you
You don't wanna be You don't wanna be You don't wanna be You don't wanna be no divorcee by 23
Well, is that your best reason to stay? Think about what your baby girl might one day say
