lyrics

she's the kind of girl who you'd say
would blow away
in a strong enough wind
sometimes she flies on her Huffy
or in church on Sunday
Hallelujah

and maybe, just maybe
baby's not the right word for her
she's 40, she's in her late late 30s
maybe, yeah
she lives alone in a house with no cats
not a Cathy collection in sight

and when she's lonely
she writes poetry
on pink paper, it sucks, yeah
yeah! yeah!

he's got a self-winding watch
you might say he's self-winding
and he's particular about his clothes
and he knows the difference
between a Windsor knot
and a half-Windsor knot

he'd rather not talk about his job
because he'd rather be talking
about his jazz record collection
people used to say
they were perfect together
not them, they'd say

we're better off
being our own better half
better off being alone, better
yeah! yeah!
