Текст песни Graham Parker & The Rumour — Local Girls

Sit by my window
and look outside,
Wonder why a sun
don't shine on me
What's wrong with you
you stupid child?
Don't you think that I am
the one you're waiting to see?
Don't talk too much
'cause she falls for the soft touch
Makes her feel everything is secure
Don't ever leave a footprint on the floor

Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls

She's probably half-wit
she must be straight
Or, bound to have a mother
who knows nothing but hate.
Don't want to laugh
I'd rather knock her down
Standing at the bus stop
where she waits each morning.
So isolated that she thinks
that the army is the place
where a man oughta be
Don't bother with them they don't bother me

Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls

They got the walk, they got the talk
Right down without a flaw
At six oclock I got to stop
My dreaming at the counter of the store

Don't bother with them

Without a doubt I gotta intercept
Must be time someone
went shouted in their ear
You look all right in that
cheap print dress
But every time you swish
it 'round you make me disappear
Yes, I'm aware
of exactly what I'm doing;
Making everything a mystery,
Don't bother with it, it don't bother me

Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with them they don't bother me

Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother with the local girls
Don't bother, bother, bother, bother...
