Taking every cue from every ad, girl

Hopelessness is easy when it's a fad, girl

And being good is only when you're a bad girl

Whoa-oa, sad girl

And maybe you've got every reason in this mad world

Sad girl

Showing there is nothing you want to be

Rejecting anyone who loves you truly

And holding that expression like it's a duty

Whoa-oa, sad girl

A-What is it that makes you such a beauty?

Once in a while

To hold your head high

Would leave you a sell-out

Resigned to ask why

Devoted to die

When everything that you've been told

By any person that you hold

With any happiness in life

Will give you every reason to lie

Oh oh whoa-oh-oh

Sad girl

Taking every cue from every ad, girl

Depression is romantic when it's a fad, girl

And being good is only when you're a bad girl

Whoa-oh, sad girl

And maybe you've got every reason in this mad world

Maybe, sad girl

A-maybe you've got every reason in this man's world

Sad, sad, girl, whoa-oa sad girl

Sad, sad girl

Whoa-oa sad girl, sad girl, whoa-oa, sad girl

Sad, sad girl

(repeat in various forms)

you got every reason, you got every reason

you got every reason in this mad world

Sad, sad girl (repeat and fade
