No Straight Lines

Audio Sample:
The Innocent Look Of A Very Guilty Girl

Written for my elder daughter when she was in her early teens, this song has thus far proved substantially prophetic.  The last lines are advising her to, in fact, let me advise her.  Mostly she did, but of course she is now all grown up and going her own way.  I love her very much.

She got the innocent look, of a very guilty girl,
She got the kinda eyes, gonna take her round the world,
She got the two for one, she got the neons on,
She got the come undone, she don’t need no gun,
She got the innocent look of a very guilty girl.

She got the confidence plus, and she ain’t afraid to stare,
She seem to kinda say, “Hey! Whatcha doing over there?”
She got the here and now, she’ll even show you how,
She’ll find a way somehow, ‘cos you don’t fight the power,
Of the innocent look, of a very guilty girl.

She’s the one who’s gonna get what everybody wants,
She’s the one who’s gonna tell, between the do’s and the don’ts,
She got the walking dream, she got the in-between,
She got the cat and cream, do you know what I mean,
About the innocent look of a very guilty girl.
That’s what, she got, she got,
She got the innocent look of a very guilty girl,
The innocent look of a very guilty girl,
The innocent look of a very guilty girl,
The innocent look of a very guilty girl
You gotta open right up, open right up, open right up & let me in
You gotta open right up, open right up, open right up & let me in
You gotta open right up, open right up, open right up & let me in
You gotta open right up, open right up, open right up & let me in
