I love this song...
It's very catchy. I have it on my mp3 player, and it's one of the few songs that I can repeat and not get sick of it:
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows what's best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
I want a girl with the right allocations
Who's fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's playing with her jewelry
She's putting up her hair
She's touring the facility
And picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnng jacket......
I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl who stays up late
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who used a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's touring the facility
And picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnng.... lonnng jacket
I want a girl with a smooth liquidation
I want a girl with good dividends
At city bank we will meet accidentally
We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen
She wants a car with a cupholder arm rest
She wants a car that will get her there
She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen
She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler Le Baron
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnggggggggg jacket
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows what's best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
I want a girl with the right allocations
Who's fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's playing with her jewelry
She's putting up her hair
She's touring the facility
And picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnng jacket......
I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl who stays up late
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who used a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's touring the facility
And picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnng.... lonnng jacket
I want a girl with a smooth liquidation
I want a girl with good dividends
At city bank we will meet accidentally
We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen
She wants a car with a cupholder arm rest
She wants a car that will get her there
She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen
She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler Le Baron
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnggggggggg jacket

hehe... Cake is a very interesting band.. I used to drive my family crazy by playing "The Distance" over and over again. White-people-rap.
"I want a girl who cuts through red tape with a machete"...definitely a good characteristic to look for in a partner :P
However, I would never marry anybody who had the abysmal taste to trade away an MG for--of all things--a Chrysler Le Baron. *shudder*
Definitely a good tune. Its timeless really.
I prefer the 'sheep go to heaven' song.
And, Joel, speaking of Cake whats that song that talks about french canadians in a bar on the river with a weird name? I can't find it in my collection.
lol...Reuben, there is more than one Joel in the Golden Horseshoe, and I'm (the?) one you don't know : )
consequently, I have no idea what that Cake song is!
shoot. you seemed to be pretty knowledgeable about cake and the other joel i know from around there is a pretty big cake fan so i just assumed. i still really want to know what song that is - i guess i will have to email him.

The other joel has informed me by way of his blog http://funwow.blogspot.com/ that the song is called 'wheels'. (See this lyrics site)
