(She Thinks She's) Edith Head - They Might Be Giants
Back in high school I knew a girl
Not too simple and not too kind
We both grew up but I heard she changed
From a New Wave fan to another kind
She thinks she's Edith Head
But you might know she's not
The accent in her speech
She didn't have growing up
She thinks she's Edith Head
Or Helen Gurley Brown
Or some other cultural figure
We don't know a lot about
It's been years since I moved away
But at Christmas I come home
And I saw her reflection
In the window of a store
She was talking to herself
Not too simple and not too kind
I walked on by, it was complicated
And it stuck in my mind
She thinks she's Edith Head
But you might know she's not
The accent in her speech
She didn't have growing up
The accent in her speech
She didn't have growing up
The accent in her speech
She didn't have growing up
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
(AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!)
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
JF: You guys want to listen to the whole thing...
"One more!..."
JF: ...before we get...
"...one more!..."
JF: (laughing) Okay - One more!
"...go!"
SHE'S LOST HER MIND! ("I ate a bug")
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
She thinks she's Edith Head
She thinks she's Edith Head now
