[Verse 1: Helen Marnie]
Once there was a young girl
But old enough to know girl
Went by the name of Ladybird
Charmed you with the one hand
And broke you in the next hand
Then she'd be gone out of your life
[Chorus: Helen Marnie and Mira Aroyo]
If you've got time
If you've got time
And you're ever to change her mind
To change her mind
You'll need more than a glass of wine
She's not that kind of girl
You'll never win
You'll never win
'cause she leaves when you think you're in
Think you're in
Doesn't care if it's her or him
She's not that kind of girl
[Verse 2: Helen Marnie]
Mornings are the cruelest
No no, no, nothing more or less
Just slept with the thought of Ladybird
Everywhere you see her
Her new possession with her
Don't warn them they're not listening to you
[Chorus: Helen Marnie and Mira Aroyo]
If you've got time
If you've got time
And you're ever to change her mind
To change her mind
You'll need more than a glass of wine
She's not that kind of girl
You'll never win
You'll never win
'cause she leaves when you think you're in
Think you're in
Doesn't care if it's her or him
She's not that kind of girl
[Interlude]
[Chorus: Helen Marnie and Mira Aroyo]
If you've got time
If you've got time
And you're ever to change her mind
To change her mind
You'll need more than a glass of wine
She's not that kind of girl
You'll never win
You'll never win
'cause she leaves when you think you're in
Think you're in
Doesn't care if it's her or him
She's not that kind of girl
[Chorus: Helen Marnie and Mira Aroyo]
If you've got time
If you've got time
And you're ever to change her mind
To change her mind
You'll need more than a glass of wine
She's not that kind of girl
You'll never win
You'll never win
'cause she leaves when you think you're in
Think you're in
Doesn't care if it's her or him
She's not that kind of girl
