Lyrics The Jezabels

The Jezabels

Old Little Girls

On the first night

It was an alien

In hazy streets

And in hazy streets

It became a man

Who lurked outside

The alien

Came close to me

Came close to being me tonight

Oh nothing could describe

The cryptic cross of girls and boys

Oh what useless words

Oh what useless words

Had us screaming out to God

Who's going to cut these lovers up?

And the beautiful thing a said:

?Come close to me

Come close to being me tonight

Be emancipated

By all these old little girls?

Old little girls on the way from work

And in the shopping malls

And in the urinals

I saw them. They were all little girls

Oh nothing could describe

The cryptic cross of girls and boys

Oh what useless words

Oh what useless words

Had us screaming out to God

Who's going to cut these lovers up?

Oh what useless words

Oh what a useless lord

Had us screaming out to you

Who's going to cut these lovers up?

Who's going to cut these lovers up?

Are you going to cut these lovers up?

You going to cut them, useless God?
