Regina Spektor| Long Brown Hair
She had long brown hair
All down her breast
Made me think about my future
Made me think about my past.
She was so pretty
pretty as can be.
And I thought, “My God,
why shouldn’t it be me?”
Oh, god. Why shouldn’t it be me?
Her skin was tight.
Her manner was free.
She gave me that look
that seemed to say, “Hey, you look at me.”
Her smile was crooked and good
As she sucked her Capri
and I thought, “my god.
why shouldn’t it be me?”
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, God.
Why shouldn’t it be me?
Her body was free
And I bet filled with her love.
Don’t tell me what’s proper
Anyone can see
I wasn’t even her first
So don’t blame it on me
She was so pretty,
as pretty as can be.
And I thought, “My god,
Why shouldn’t it be me?
Oh come on this once, God.
Why shouldn’t it be me?”
Her body was free
Oh, and I bet filled with her love.
Now you all read the bible, right?
You know what the bible says?
I’ll tell you what it says.
Don’t put a stumbling block in front of someone who can’t see.
Don’t put a beautiful body in front of someone who’s hungry.
She was so pretty,
As pretty as can be,
And I thought, “My god,
Why shouldn’t it be me,”
Oh come on, come on, come on.
Her body was free
Oh and I bet filled with her love.
