[Verse]
Here she comes again
With vodka in her veins
Been playing with a spike
She couldn't get it right
Splendour in silver dress
Velocity princess
The world was hers and then
It fell apart again
[Chorus]
I don't need anyone to help me
No, not anyone at all
Because my so-called friends have left me
And now I don't care at all
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Velocity Girl was written by Bobby Gillespie.
“Velocity Girl” peaked at #77 on the UK Singles chart.
