Lyrics

[00:09] Ricky played the flute
[00:12] But she never had a use for it
[00:15] Miming her part in the school band
[00:19] While I took a solo on the saxophone
[00:22] And I learned harmony
[00:25] But she could dance, she could move
[00:27] Like the girls on the TV
[00:40] Mum took her to Johnny Young Talent School
[00:44] But she quit
[00:45] She said that she got scared
[00:47] When they made her do the splits
[00:50] She tried tap school and blew the teacher away
[00:55] But the girls in the class teased her
[00:57] Saying she was too chubby
[01:07] I remember when she told me
[01:13] She cried in shame
[01:18] I told her not to worry
[01:22] We can do anything
[01:27] I told her one day we’d be beautiful
[01:33] And maybe we could start a band
[01:38] cos I was born to sing
[01:44] And she was born to dance
[01:47] She was born to dance like the
[01:50] Girls on the TV, girls on the TV
[01:56] She could always dance better than the
[02:00] Girls on the TV, 10am R ‘n’ B
[02:06] She could always dance better than me
[02:18] She was bullied all day
[02:22] And made to feel like a fool
[02:24] Mum was born again and decided
[02:27] To send her to the Christian school
[02:30] On Thursdays her friends
[02:32] Would dance in the spirit
[02:34] At the school church but Ricky laughed
[02:36] And never believed in it
[02:48] We moved in with Mum’s first
[02:51] Boyfriend after Dad
[02:54] He was only 21 and he’d always get mad
[02:58] While I hid in my room
[03:02] Writing poems after school
[03:04] He tried to kiss Ricky
[03:07] On the piano stool
[03:17] I remember when she told me
[03:23] She was on cocaine
[03:27] I felt like I didn’t know her
[03:32] Or how she got that way
[03:37] Now, her lovers are all married
[03:40] I wear my wedding ring
[03:43] On my right hand
[03:47] Maybe we weren’t meant to settle down
[03:53] No, I was born to sing
[03:56] And she was born to dance like the
[04:00] Girls on the TV
[04:02] Girls on the TV
[04:05] She could always dance better than the
[04:09] Girls on the TV, 10am R ‘n’ B
[04:16] She could always dance better than the
[04:20] Girls on the TV
