Back in high school I knew a girl Not too simple and not too kind We both grew up but I heard she changed From a new wave fan to another kind She thinks she's Edith Head But you might know she's not The accent in her speech She didn't have growing up She thinks she's Edith Head Or Helen Gurley Brown Or some other cultural figure We don't know a lot about It's been years since I moved away But at Christmas I come home And I saw her reflection In the window of a store She was talking to herself Not too simple and not too kind I walked on by, it was complicated And it stuck in my mind She thinks she's Edith Head But you might know she's not The accent in her speech She didn't have growing up The accent in her speech She didn't have growing up The accent in her speech She didn't have growing up She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!) She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now JF: You guys want to listen to the whole thing... "One more!..." JF: ...before we get... "...one more!..." JF: (laughing) Okay - One more! "...go!" SHE'S LOST HER MIND! ("I ate a bug") She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now She thinks she's Edith Head She thinks she's Edith Head now |
