Not Far from Her World

She’s into cold cream and I’m making bombs in my room
She’s like a prom queen and I’m the prophet of doom
I’m smuggling firearms, she’s reading Mademoiselle
Don’t drop the nerve gas that’s not perfume on that shelf
‘Cause I’m using force in effecting political change
She needs a new dress she thinks she’ll go shopping today
I’m Not From Her World.
I’ve got a radio broadcasting to the third world
She’s got a dance class tonight she’s learning to twirl
I think the phone’s tapped, I hear the cops at the door
She’s into yoga now, bent out of shape on the floor
‘Cause I think the world is a mess of corruption and vice
She thinks the world greatest shoe store is awfully nice
I’m Not From Her World.
I got my friends here and they’re on my side
We need machine guns so we take a ride
She’s at the front door with a nightgown of silk
And she tells me to bring home a gallon of milk
I hear the boots now the social war’s getting near
She’s in the mood for whatever’s in fashion this year
She says to get dressed we’re having dinner at eight
And I’ve set the time bomb so I can’t afford to be late
‘Cause I’m using force in effecting political change
She needs a new dress she thinks she’ll go shopping today
I’m Not From Her World.
