Reactionary Girl Lyrics


Robin Zander Reactionary Girl


I can tell what you're
Ready to do, you got your
Bags all packed and your face painted blue.
Your lifeline is a pendulum,
Swingin' high and low.
Oh, now you're three thousand miles from the softest
blow.

'Cause nothin' that I do, can stop her swingin',
As far as she can, with her ears still ringin'.
Before it's all done, you'll be through with the world,
I didn't know you were such, a reactionary girl.

Her eyes became restless,
And her mouth got tense.
She must have been,
Ready to begin
A new experience.
And I was waitin' for the rain to fall,
But the clouds just passed on by.
Now I know I'd only been a fool to try.

'Cause nothin' that I do, can stop her swingin',
As far as she can, with her ears still ringin'.
Before it's all done, you'll be through with the world,
I didn't know you were such, a reactionary girl.

Tell her she's lucky,
Tell her she's liked.
It's only salt water,
Keeps her up at night.

Well a man loves a woman,
That's what we do.
We make false starts,
Broken hearts,
And try to see it through.
But now you're ridin' on your pendulum,
Immune to us all.
Baby, have a bitchin' summer,
See ya next fall 'cause

Nothin' that I do, can stop her swingin',
As far as she can, with her ears still ringin'.
Before it's all done, you'll be through with the world,
I didn't know you were such,
A reactionary girl,
A reactionary girl,
A reactionary girl.
