Courtney

Courtney by The Clarks

Everyone’s gonna look at me, confounded by my decency

I’ve got no tales of personal tragedy

And everyone’s gonna know my name, and talk about my new found fame

Alluding to my functional family

She said she liked the simple melody.

She brought me on stage for a bow

I stood there laughin’, all I said was ‘wow’

And Courtney loves me now

Now my friends they all want to know, is this for real or is this just for show

They’re taking bets on when I’m history

And all her friends are gonna tell her things, shared apartments, diamond rings

And how that car phone’s an absolute necessity

She liked the way I kissed her cheek.

She brought me upstairs, grabbed a towel

I stood there laughin’, all I said was ‘wow’

REPEAT CHORUS

Courtney’s fond of telling me

I’m everything she used to be

Bridget Fonda’s telling her

Let’s go for steaks, baby you could wear your fur

Then I’ll ask to have her hand, and hold it as she quits the band

She whispers playfully, you can open up for me

Buy a house maybe hit the road, share a joint maybe share the load

And laugh about our plans they’re history

She said she liked the way I licked her feet.

She brought me upstairs, showed me how

I stood there laughin’, all I said was ‘wow’

REPEAT CHORUS
