i once had a girlfriend
but then one day she dumped me
and everywhere i go
people would ask me
where she was
i don't want to talk about her
someone always asks about her
so i tell them all my girlfriend's dead

i say its leukemia
or sometimes bulimia
or a great big truck ran her
over and chopped off her head
i don't want to talk about her
someone always asks about her
so i tell them all she's dead

i guess theres a part of me
that likes the sympathy
or the looks on their faces
when i tell them how she passed away
i don't want to talk about her
someone always asks about her
so i tell them all she's dead

my girlfriend's dead
my girlfriend's dead you see
its a total lie
but its easier on me
than having to admit
that she likes someone else
my girlfriend's dead
my girlfriend's dead you know
please change the subject
im going to go
jump off a building
and join her in heaven

i don't want to talk about her
someone always asks about her
i don't want to talk about her
someone always asks about her
so i tell them all my girlfriend's dead

    General Comment:Great song...beats telling people "I got dumped" Frickin' hilarious. I would like to know...how the hell could they have sold out to the radio when none of the stations, even in SoCal, play them? I mean maybe at 2am or something, but regular rotation? No way...
