about
'This Is The Girl!’ was inspired by the David Lynch film Mullholland Drive. It explores the way that celebrity worship has become a modern day religion. ‘The Girl’ is seen as an icon, fetishised for her youth and idolised…until it’s time for the internet to rip her down. From an artist’s point of view, it’s easy to be paranoid that the music industry is rigged and that there is always a pre-selected ‘chosen one’.
lyrics
This Is The Girl!
Hot young things, on flat screen plasma TVs
Paid entry, in this industry they get in for free
White and straight, born on the scheduled air date
It’s her fate, here to entertain, it was preordained
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
Sweet sixteen, provided added intrigue
Treat her mean, She’s insufferable, but we love her still
I should be, laid out across the back seat
Palm lined streets, stealing every scene, I live the dream
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
This is the girl!
She’s the one
Chosen
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
This is the girl!
