I hope you find a stable girl Who treats you like you deserved Take her home at Christmastime, impress your middle class parents God knows that I could never meet all of their gold expectations And if they want the family jewels, then pack them up, they can take them You have known for quite a while That I am not so well Sad girls don't make good Sad girls don't make good wives And when you're sitting in the dark next to a girl who could love you You're at the indie movie house watching a film you'd take me to I hope you feel a little peace Thinking I've finally gone crazy And you can take her slender hand Make her your wife and be happy You have known for quite a while That I am not so well Sad girls don't make good Sad girls don't make good You have known for quite a while That I am not so well Sad girls don't make good Sad girls don't make good She was brilliant and oh so talented But she was sad and sick That's what killed her in the She was brilliant and oh so talented But she was sad and sick And that's what killed her in the end
