Lyrics
Vaseline
By Duncan Riley copyright 2002
verse
She was a friend of mine when I covered her with vaseline and I didn?t mean
to freak her, I just had to grease her, she was friend of mine when I made her
drink some turpentine and I didn?t mean to burn her, I just had to turn her,
into the kind of girl I?m looking for?..
Pre chorus
Standin in the rain, washing off my feet again, I hope that you don?t mind ? standin? in the rain, washing myself off again I know that you don?t mind.
Chorus
Where?ve all the good girls gone, I need one to be mine, where?ve all the good girls gone, I want to cover them?. With vaseline
Verse 2
She was a friend of mine when I covered her in vaseline and I didn?t mean to freak her, I was forced to grease her, she was a friend of mine when I made her do that cocaine line and I didn?t mean to burn her, I just had to turn her, into the kind of girl I?m looking for.
Pre chorus 2
Standin? in the waves hopin I?ll be washed out to sea and never be, standin in the waves hopin? I?ll be free again and never have to see.
Chorus
Where?ve all the good girls gone I need one to be mine, where?ve all the good girls gone I want to cover them, I want to cover them, I want to cover them with vaseline.
