I was ready to leave
Until I saw you walk through.
& now you’re looking at me
Like I’ve been looking at you.
Take a look around you,
You stand out a mile.
There’d be no-one here without you,
And so I ask myself why?
You’re such a pretty girl
That’s such a pretty dress
So what’s a pretty girl doing in a place like this?
Cold hearts and cocaine smiles
Are all that’s here inside
So what’s a pretty girl doing in a place like this?
The room could burn to the ground
For all that anyone cares.
That’s why it’s hard to believe
Someone like you is standing there.
Take a look around you,
A world made of white.
There is no-one here quite like you
Are you lonesome tonight?
You’re such a pretty girl
That’s such a pretty dress
So what’s a pretty girl doing in a place like this?
Where lovers, friends and fans
Are measured out in grams.
What’s a pretty girl doing in a place like this?
To me it almost seems absurd
