Locals (Girls like us) Lyrics

[Intro: underscores]
Machinery, catharsis, technology
Rag-tag, transcendent, slapstick
Try-hard, high-strung, neurotic
Blue Cross, golden arches, pearly gates
Supermarket, interstate, picket fence
Domestic, citizen's arrest, vestibule
Two-story, J name, gas station, phantom pain
Art therapist, eggshell white, office park
Parking garage, mall, retail, micropolitan, turnpike
Private property, killing point, agenda
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
(Good luck)

[Refrain: underscores]
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck

[Verse 1: underscores]
Uh, I've done the questionnaire like 700 times
To get the same results as my friend, huh
We've been inseparable since 2009
She just doesn't know 'bout it yet
(Can you feel it?)

[Refrain: underscores]
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh (Can you feel your?)
Skin, bone, sinew, good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh (Can you feel your?)
Skin, bone, sinew, good luck

[Verse 2: underscores]
Uh, I've done the questionnaire, like, never in my life
But I've got a ten-foot pole, huh
And if I could I'd poke her with it right between her eyes
May God rest her soul
(Can you feel your?)

[Refrain: underscores]
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew
Good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh (Can you feel your?)
Skin, bone, sinew, good luck (Can you feel your?)
Arms, body, legs, flesh (Can you feel your?)
(Come on and touch me, oh)

[Pre-Chorus: underscores]
Stop me if you've heard this one before
Girls like us are rotten to the core (Let's go)
Stop me if you've heard this one before
Girls like us are rotten to the core

[Chorus: underscores]
Stop me if you've heard this one before
Girls like us are rotten to the core
Stop me if you've heard this one before
Girls like us are rotten to the core (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Girls like us are rotten to the core (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your? Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Someday life will knock us off our horse (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh)
(Touch me, oh)

[Refrain: underscores]
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck
(And everyone's a critic)
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck
(And everything is business)
Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck

[Verse 3: gabby start & underscores]
Man, he wiggles when he walks
And he wanted it to stop because
His superficial smile, it got everybody up
The band is playing math but the boys are talking science
I started laughing at the locals (It'll wrap back around)
Yeah, the horse I like is whack, she can't run very fast
She's always had my back (Yeah) I bet my bottom dollar
And I bet my britches off (What?) Can you get me back on track?
I started laughing at the locals

[Chorus: underscores]
(Can you feel?)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Girls like us are rotten to the core (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your? Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Girls like us are rotten... (Can you feel your? Can you feel your?) (Oh)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew...)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Girls like us are rotten to the core (Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Stop me if you've heard this one before (Can you feel your? Can you feel your?)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)
Someday life will knock us off our horse (Can you feel your?) (It'll wrap back around)
(Arms, body, legs, flesh, skin, bone, sinew, good luck)

[Outro: gabby start]
Baby, I'm delusional, impractical is crucial (B—baby, b—baby)
Hm, it's the talk of the town, it's the talk of the town
Baby, I'm delusional, impractical is crucial (B—baby, b—baby)
Hm, it's the talk of the town, it's the talk—talk—talk—talk—
Baby, I'm delusional, impractical is crucial (B—baby, b—baby)
Hm, it's the talk of the town, it's the talk of the town
Baby, I'm delusional, impractical is crucial (B—baby, b—baby)
Hm, it's the talk of the town, it's the talk of the town
