Manchester Girl Lyrics - Eels

She hides in the library reading Henry Miller books 

'Til they flash the lights, it's time to go 

When she was a little kid she said 

"Dad, I don't know why I feel so penniless inside" 

She's on the promenade 

She's looking for a dress 

She's locked outside a world 

Just a Manchester girl 

Oh, I'll meet you there 

By the old newsstand 

Oh, I'll meet you there tonight

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Shoot out at a neighbor's house 

She pulls the covers over her head 

She's counting the shots as they go by 

In Pandora's litter box 

Well, it's getting mighty high 

That cat's gonna keep her up at night 

Photos 

Another scary dream 

Another cigarette 

She's locked outside a world 

Just a Manchester girl 

Oh, I'll meet you there 

By the old newsstand 

Oh, I'll meet you there tonight
