Ghost World

Aimee Mann - Ghost World

Inspired by Dan Clowes' graphic novel Ghost World

Listen to the Track:

Lyrics to the song:
Finals blew, I barely knew
my graduation speech
And with college out of reach
If I can’t find a job it’s down to Dad
and Myrtle Beach

So, I’m bailing this town – or
tearing it down – or
Probably more
Like hanging around,
Hanging around

Everyone I know is acting weird
or way too cool
They hang out by the pool
So I just read a lot and ride my bike
around the school

And all that I need now
is someone with the brains
And the know-how
to tell me what I want…

Anyhow
12th of June, a gibbous moon
was this the longest day?
I’ll walk down to the bay
And jump off of the dock and watch
the summer waste away

Then I’m bailing this town – or
tearing it down – or
Probably more like
Hanging around
Hanging around
Just hanging around

So tell me what I want
