Counting time in the backseat of my mind
That’s no place I’d like to go
But we can ditch this holiday
Once we find a place to play
They’ll never get you, anyway
And everybody knows
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You just need a pretty girl’s today
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You just need a pretty girl
Collecting fears
Or whatever seems to fill up your years
That’s no place I’d like to go
And if you’re sleeping like a priest
Then you should pick a God, at least
For heavy lifting when you wake
And everybody knows
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You just need a pretty girl’s today
Mold it into shape
Fix your great escape
You just need a pretty girl
And mother wants to know
Where does his father always seem to go?
Oh there’s no way
No, there’s no way
There’s no way, no way, no way
No way, no way
And there’s no way
That I’ll ever show my face today
And there’s no place I want to go
But we can ditch this holiday
Once we find a place to play
They’ll never get you, anyway
And everybody knows
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You don’t need my love
You just need a pretty girl’s
