Nothing To Prove
Jill Sobule - 《California Years》
LRC by lzh from jiangxi pingxiang
Under the tree while listening to London
Calling or something like that
Trying to impress someone at a dying record company
And in walks in this sullen girl
Who looks like she's nineteen or wants to be
With her biker boots and her hair dyed black
Did that look so many years ago
She looks at me like I'm some square
Well fuck you kid; I got nothing to prove
Once I was as miserable as you
And here I am in Los Angeles
I came here two years ago
And everyone's young and beautiful
and their skin is so smooth
And everyone's in the industry
and I hate when they use that word
And when they tell me they're in the industry
I ask "Oh are you in steel?"
I've got nothing to prove
Once I was as miserable as you
And later that week I saw that same girl shopping
at the Trader Joe's on La Brea
She was with a big bomb blonde
and I wondered if it was her girlfriend
Surprisingly she came up to me
and smiled and said she loved our meeting
Once I was as miserable as you
Once I was as miserable as you
