i know a girl
she's like a shrew
and if you're a weaker mammal
she dig on you
she make a burrow
with her nose
when it's cold outside
that's where she goes

i know a girl
got a big red car
and if you're laughing
she'll take a joke a little too far
she makes wishes
on a distant star
it don't get her funny jokes
it don't wash her car

i know a girl
she's way out there
she sings and dances
with a trained pygmy bear
circus sideshow
in old detroit
don't make me love her
like bruce benoit

chorus
but i got a yellow slicker
makes my skin a little thicker
