[Verse 1]
You're in an all-girl band, your futon's second hand
Your parents understand but you don't care
I have a job in a shop, I'm an undercover cop
I make sure the customers aren't thieves

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Old at being young, young at being old
Everything's on hold within our evolution

[Chorus]
You're my alternative girlfriend
I love you, now you cannot pretend
There's nothing left that won't cross over

[Verse 2]
Last night we slept on the lawn, you woke up and I was gone
Back to the dream I dream to leave
My life with her is a bore, a worn-out metaphor
No more surprises up its sleeve

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We're old at being young, young at being old
And everything's been sold to other's revolutions

[Chorus]
You're my alternative girlfriend
I love you, now you cannot pretend
There's nothing left that won't cross over
