As Girls Go

Suzanne Vega

You make a really good girl

As girls go

Still kind of look like a guy

I never thought to wonder why



If I could pull this off

Would I know for certain

The real situation

Behind the curtain



So beautiful

damsel in distress

Not exactly natural

Stunning none the less



What happened to you?

To make you more girl than girls are

Would you ever show or tell

Cause you're so good so far



You make a really good girl

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go



Let's chronicle

The dark side of the life

Did you ever keep the date

With the steel side of the knife



Doesn't matter to me

Which side of the line

You happen to be

At any given time



You make a really good girl

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go

As girls go
