Girl Afraid by The Smiths

Girl afraid
Where do his intentions lay?
Or does he even have any?

She says
"He never really looks at me
I give him every opportunity"

In the room downstairs
He sat and stared
In the room downstairs
He sat and stared
I'll never make that mistake again

I'll never make that mistake again
I'll never make that mistake again

Boy afraid
Prudence never pays
And everything she wants costs money

But she doesn't even like me
And I know because she said so

In the room downstairs
She sat and stared
In the room downstairs
She sat and stared
I'll never make that mistake again, no
