Girl of Southern Irony

Not for nothing Men and tales Gloom and silence And sleeping pills Ah ah ah ah In absentia I've heard tell Of a girl with screws for eyes They're far apart like oceans But they wear a shallow smile Ah ah ah ah The heart's a toothache You break or fall into The girl of southern irony Ah ah ah ah It's the air of the ether It's a summer song It's the air of the finery The girl of southern irony It's the air of the ether It's a summer song It's the air of the finery The girl of southern irony et al It's the air of the ether It's the air of the ether It's the air of the ether It's the air of the ether
