Lyrics The Vandals

The Vandals

(But Then) She Spoke

There she stood

she was a vision

a picture of perfection

so I made the big decision

I'm going to talk to her

I have to show to her it could be magic

and I got the nerve up

So went over there

she was a goddess

I had to show to her I could be her Adonis

At first sight I knew she was my destiny

The first time the feeling has come over me

Intimidation, feared rejection

I need to make a love connection

then the unexpected had occurred

and then it happened

and she spoke

and it all just went to hell

her personality quickly broke the spell

so disillusioned

and I came to the conclusion

she was garbage wrapped in loveliness

leaving me so unimpressed

If she don't shut up

I'm gonna throw up

all over her shoes

How could it be?

That such a goddess would ever talk to me

and make me nauseous

All the things she said

just echoed in my head

I thought she was an angle,

but it was all just misread

Every word was terrible,

and made it more unbearable

and made me have to leave the f-ing room

and it's all because she spoke

tortured by her words

such a pretty shithead

that I wished I never heard

Perfect on the outside

but fucked on the in

how can god be so cruel?

it's got to be a sin

I had to plug my ears,

until she disappears

so I can cry - Waahh!

and it's all because she spoke

it all just went to hell

her personality quickly broke the spell

so disillusioned

that I came to the conclusion

she was garbage wrapped in loveliness

leaving me so unimpressed

I was destined to learn my lesson

and I learned it well

Never think she's perfect till you talk to her first

Never fall in love till you go through her purse

Never think she's perfect till you talk to her first

And I should know
