Girl I Met On The Internet - GIRLI

We’re the cool teens

We look good in i-D magazine

Desperately trying to make life more exciting

You got the come out nows, and the too shy gals

The prom queens and the foreign pen pals, so

Dad don’t tell me what to do

I promise one day I’ll make it up to you

And when mum asks, where you been?

I say «Please leave me alone, I’m 17»

I want someone I can call at 2am

While I’ve got that restless feeling again

Just wanna jump the gates of a closed park

Drink beer all night and have a laugh

I wanna have a cute chick on my arm

And make the boys swoon and the girls all gasp

And when my mum asks where we met

I’ll say it’s just this girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet

I feel all aggy and I wanna waste time

Tryin' to fight the feeling that I wanna run and hide

I know school’s a bore life feels like a chore

Scared that you’re boring 'cause you saw Snapchats of you snoring

But crying doesn’t help your problems

And bunking at the bus or the train won’t solve them

I spend my whole life putting up with people’s shit

Because I need them

I love you but I’m seething, I’m grieving, heaving

It’s easy to be cool if you’re hot

Wear too much makeup and be called a thot

Posing with surgical masks

Polaroid cameras and giving ourselves tasks

Go grab that girls ass

Touch it up and call it art

Be polite don’t burp or fart

I’m just a desperate bitch

A snitch with a cute chick itch

I want someone I can call at 2am

While I’ve got that restless feeling again

Just wanna jump the gates of a closed park

Drink beer all night and have a laugh

I wanna have a cute chick on my arm

And make the boys swoon and the girls all gasp

And when my mum asks where we met

I’ll say it’s just this girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet

It’ll happen like it does in the shows

I’ll like her eyes and she’ll like my clothes

Ask her for her digits and I’ll start to sweat

She’ll become the girl that I met on the internet

I bet she’ll be a spice

Forget butterflies she’ll give me beehives

That couple in the corner, I ought to warn her

She’s gonna be the girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet

The internet, the internet

She’s just this girl that I met on the internet
