Girls Are Insane

Story Behind The Song

In June of 2009, Rust Belt Jessie traveled to the Bay Area to visit Emchy. One day, they were having afternoon whiskies at Heinold's in Jack London Square, swapping stories about some of the wild girls they'd known. Emchy began scribbling lyrics, and their first song, "Girls Are Insane," was born.

Lyrics

Girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

From leather to love
With sweet in between
I gave you what I could
But you could never see

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

She's falling for you
In a stumble sort of way
Falling for you
But won't let you stray

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

She swore she'd stitch you up
If you drank some shots
Then you passed out
And bled on the cot

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

She wanted to be gay
But couldn't deal with it
Cos she only dated dudes
Who treated her like shit

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

A bottle of whiskey
She drank on the beach
Then tried to smash his face
With a drunken reach

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

She saw another girl
That was a hotter bitch
Then forgot the name
Of the girl that she was with

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

She had a human skull
On a shelf in her room
And every time you kissed her
It tasted like doom

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

This girl so drunk
She kinda lost her mind
Ain't nothing wrong
With a little bump and grind

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train

We made love when we were seventeen
Then kissed in a bathroom stall
You're my best friend forever and always
And you never, ever call

Cos girls are insane
Girls are insane
Keep drinking that booze
Keep riding that train
