Lyrics Heavy Young Heathens - Sha La La La La

Unphased she's motivated
By her lack of charm
She keeps her social status
In a tattoo on her arm
Takes up with visitors
Professors all by trade
And though she's twenty-one
She tells them all she's twenty-eight

Let's talk about love
Let's talk about hate
Last time that we spoke
It was a little much too late
Let's talk about soul
Let's talk about fame
So much talk, so little time
She plays it like a game

Sha-la-la-la-la

Please Mr. Grieves
Bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm
With needles in her arms
Well I've got nowhere to go
And I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no
I can't stand being alone

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la

Her car is empty
And the milk has all run dry
She dresses for the weather
After dinner's when she dines
She hands out tokens
While the patrons wait in line
Although she's twenty-two
She tells them all she's twenty-nine

Let's talk about black
Let's talk about gold
Make us all believe again
Before you'll get too old
Let's talk about red
Let's talk about blue
The only other colors left
Is one I saved for you

Sha-la-la-la-la

Please Mr. Grieves
Bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm
With needles in her arms
Well I've got nowhere to go
But I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no
I can't stand being alone

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la

I can't stand being no
Why don't you leave me alone

It's late October
By the time that she awakes
And suddenly she's laughing
And decides to take the train
Although she's trirty-five
She tell us all she's twenty-eight

Sha-la-la-la-la

Please Mr. Grieves
Bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm
With needles in her arms
Well I've got nowhere to go
But I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no
I can't stand being alone

Please Mr. Grieves
Bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm
With needles in her arms
Well I've got nowhere to go
But I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no
I can't stand being alone

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la

Hey-hey-hey-hey
Sha-la-la-la-la
