New fast automatic
She's your average girl
Another beauty queen
Takes her life for granted
Never stops to think
Never stops to breathe

You fail to fly through time
18 going on 29
Doesn't buy into silence anymore
Swears she's not corporate for another corporate
Hope you wear your arrogance oh so well

To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Wasting all their lives
Like friendship, wasting time
To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Desire never dies
In wasting precious time

New fast automatic
She's good with boys
She's got a lighter
Knows no different now
She wants attention
She starts a fire

Sex sells and strikes from sides
Doesn't buy into silence anymore
Swears she's not corporate for another corporate
Hope you wear your arrogance oh so well (just like everyone else)

To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Wasting all their lives
Like friendship, wasting time
To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Desire never dies
In wasting precious time

We're wasting precious time

Hope you wear your arrogance oh so well (just like everyone else)

To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Wasting all their lives
Like friendship, wasting time
To the sound of New York traffic
Girls like her like AM static
Desire never dies
In wasting precious time
