Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lisa knows a girl who's been abused
It changed her philosophy in '82
She's always looking for a fight
She keeps the neighbors up all night
[Verse 2]
I got to her when I'm feeling slack
The girl's using me as a punching bag
I think that I could help her out
But the girl's got a lot to be mad about
[Verse 3]
But in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
Oh yeah, she's losing it
[Verse 4]
Lisa met Chelsea at the knocking school
Chelsea didn't feel like following the rules
So they left the place for another school
Where the boys go with boys and the girls with girls
[Verse 5]
Chelsea was the one that's been abused
It changed her philosophy in '82
She says, "Inch for inch and pound for pound
And who needs boys when there's Lisa around?"
[Verse 6]
But in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
She goes to the mirror to put on her stuff
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
She doesn't speak to anyone till four o'clock
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
Oh yeah, she's losing it
