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 wanna 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 wanna talk about her 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 wanna 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 girlfriend's dead you know Please change the subject I'm going to go jump off a building And join her in heaven I don't wanna talk about her Someone always asks about her So I tell them all "She's dead!"
