Lyrics Girl Least Likely - The Divine Comedy

Girl Least Likely

Well I knew this girl
In secondary school
All of her teachers
Assumed she was a fool
Because they never heard
A single word from Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green where you been all this time?
Well I asked her once
Why she never spoke
And with a furtive glance
She whispered «I don’t know»
Maybe it’s because
Just because I’m Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green where you been all this time?
Sometimes I think about those days
I wonder what became of my old friends
Of my old enemies
All their hopes and dreams
Were they realized or were they simply given up on
Like Alison
Well I read somewhere
She started a website
And when she sold the shares
She found that overnight
She’d become a millionaire
Congratulations Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green (girl least likely to succeed)
Alison Green where you been all this time?
