Brett Anderson - Elegant lyrics

My elegant girl slept on designer sheets Her sugar free words swayed to a hightech beat With crazy stories of hatred and hurt People's feelings were crushed in the dirt My elegant girl she drips out with the leaves Gave no interviews in her tennis shoes Well there's no excuse for infamy From their college towns To the overground People hung on every word she breathed My elegant girl moved with the hippest crowds Whose colorful words were bright but never loud Gave no interviews, in her mohair suits Well there's no excuse for infamy From their college towns To their roundabouts People hung on every word they breathed When they're money's gone What's gonna keep you warm Can't find anyone to take its place When you ain't got anything Except your aspirin Just remember who you stepped on when You were an elegant girl Who cried expensive tears But now your sugar free words Are fading with the years
