Lyrics My Girlfriend's Dead - Adolescents, The Vandals

My Girlfriend's Dead

I once had a girlfriend
But then one day she dumped me
And everywhere I’d go
People would ask me where she was
I don’t want to talk about her
Someone always asks about her
So I tell them all my girlfriend’s dead
I say it’s leukemia
Or sometimes bulimia
Or a great big truck ran her over
And chopped off her head
I don’t want to talk about her
But someone always asks about her
So I tell them all she’s dead
I guess there’s a part of me
That likes the sympathy
Or the looks on their faces when I tell them
How she passed away
I don’t want to talk about her
But someone always asks about her
So I tell them all she’s dead
(My girlfriend’s dead)
My girlfriend’s dead you see
It’s a total lie, but it’s easier on me
Than having to admit that she likes someone else
(My girlfriend’s dead)
My girlfriends dead you know
Please change the subject or I’m going to go
Jump off a building and join her in heaven
I don’t want to talk about her
But someone always asks about her
So I tell them all she’s dead
I once had a girlfriend
But then one day she dumped me
And everywhere I’d go
People would ask me where she was
I don’t want to talk about her
But someone always asks about her
So I tell them all my girlfriend’s dead
I don’t want to talk about her
But someone always asks about her
So I tell them all my girlfriend’s dead
