Tim Larcombe - This Is What Makes Us Girls lyrics

[Verse 1] Remember how we used to party up all night Sneaking out and looking for a taste of real life Drinking in the small town firelight (Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice) Sweet sixteen and we had arrived Walking down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!" Stealin' police cars with the senior guys Teachers said we'd never make it out alive [Pre-Chorus 1] There she was, my new best friend High heels in her hand, swayin' in the wind While she starts to cry, mascara running' down her little Bambi eyes: "Lana, how I hate those guys." [Chorus] This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven and we put our love first Something that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We don't stick together cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen [Verse 2] And that's where the beginning of the end begun Everybody knew that we had too much fun We were skipping school and drinking on the job With the boss Sweet sixteen and we had arrived Baby's table dancing' at the local dive Cheering our names in the pink spotlight Drinking cherry schnapps in the velvet night [Pre-Chorus 2] Yo we used to go break into the hotel pool Glimmering, we'd swim Running from the cops in our black bikini tops Screaming, "Get us while we're hot. Get us while we're hot" (C'mon, take a shot) [Chorus] This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven and we put our love first Something' that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We don't stick together cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen [Bridge] The prettiest in-crowd that you had ever seen Ribbons in our hair and our eyes gleamed mean A freshmen generation of degenerate beauty queens And you know something? They were the only friends I ever had We got into trouble and when stuff got bad I got sent away, I was waving on the train platform Crying cause I know I'm never coming back [Chorus] This is what makes us girls We all look for heaven and we put our love first Something' that we'd die for, it's our curse Don't cry about it, don't cry about it This is what makes us girls We don't stick together cause we put our love first Don't cry about him, don't cry about him It's all gonna happen
