[Intro: Lou Reed]
I would cut my legs and tits off
When I think of Boris Karloff and Kinski
In the dark of the moon
It made me dream of Nosferatu
Trapped on the isle of Doctor Moreau
Oh, wouldn't it be lovely
[Refrain: James Hetfield]
Small town girl
Small town girl
Small town girl
Small town girl
[Verse 1: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
I was thinking Peter Lorre
When things got pretty gory as I
Crossed to the Brandenburg Gate
Small town girl
I was feeling snappy
Perhaps I’d been napping
And I had just ate
Small town girl
A following heart
Can tear you apart
On a midnight to 8 shift
Small town girl
A graveyard romance
Can only give one chance
As the tombstones weave and breathe
Small town girl
[Refrain: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
Small town girl
Small town girl
Ah, small town girl
Small town girl
[Verse 2: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
Feeling happy
When my heart got beating
On a Sunday afternoon
Small town girl
I dreamt of breezes
Going through the treeses and
Stars were still illumed
Small town girl
I have three hearts
That I keep apart
Trying to relate
Small town girl
To normal feelings
And the nighttime reelings
And some absynthe drunk so late
[Refrain: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
My small town girl
I'm just a small town girl
Small town girl
Small town girl
[Verse 3: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
The cook got drunk
And all the whores they shrunk
Onto the size of dessert plates
Small town girl
But me, I am happy
'Cause I got my little nappy
And some opium to set me straight
Small town girl
I'm just a small town girl
Who wants to give it a whirl
While my looks still hold me straight
Small town girl
Small town girl
Straight up to illusion
And fantasy’s fusion
Of reality mixed with drink
Small town girl
[Refrain: Lou Reed & James Hetfield]
I'm just a small town girl
Who's gonna give life a whirl
Looking at the Brandenburg Gate
Small town girl
I'm just a small town girl
Giving life a whirl
Looking, looking
Small town girl
At the Brandenburg Ga-a-a-a-a-a-te
I'm just a small town girl
Small town girl
Small town girl, yeah, yeah
Small town girl
I'm just a small town girl
Small town girl
