Crazy Mixed-Up Kid (Smithereens) [Folk City - NYC 12/7/85] - The Smithereens

My friends tell me she’ll be back some day

Until then, I’ll have to find a way

I’ve tried so very hard to be

Someone she’d fall in love with

I cry my eyes out, she’s no good

It’s true and I know it

I guess she’s just a crazy, mixed up kid

Everybody says she’ll come around

Until she does, you know, I won’t be found

I’ve tried so very hard to be

Someone she’d fall in love with

I cry my eyes out, she’s no good

It’s true and I know it

I guess she’s just a crazy, mixed up kid

I won’t compromise

I won’t look in her eyes

It seems unfair

That girls like her don’t even care

My friends tell me she’ll be back some day

Until then, I’ll have to find a way

I’ve tried so very hard to be

Someone she’d fall in love with

It hurts to love a girl

When she don’t even wanna know you

I guess she’s just a crazy, mixed up kid

Mixed up kid

Mixed up kid

Mixed up kid
