about
A song reminiscent of Fast Cars in the 1980s. A tongue-in-cheek sketch of a cliched satin-shorted roller-skating LA vamp. Think Veronica from the Archies.
lyrics
Alpha Girl... Alpha Girl... Alpha Girl...
Sitting on the beach at Santa Monica,
Watching cadillacs go by,
We met a girl called Veronica,
She's the type of girl that men want to try
Veronica's an alpha girl,
She's a cool, hip, fashionista,
She drinks straight cafe cubano,
And then flirts with the barista,
Then he kissed her, the alpha girl...
She's an L.A. alpha girl, she’s an L.A.alpha girl,
She breaks men's hearts and they fall apart
She's an L.A., L.A. alpha girl,
She skates through the Palisades,
She works out on Muscle Beach,
All the stupid jocks are drooling,
But she's totally out of reach,
Totally out of reach, totally out of reach,
Totally out of reach
She's an L.A. alpha girl, she’s an L.A., L.A. alpha girl,
She breaks men's hearts and they fall apart,
She's an L.A., L.A. alpha girl,
Alpha Girl,
Totally, totally out of reach!
Alpha Girl...
Totally, totally out of reach!
Totally, totally out of reach!
She's an L.A. alpha girl, she’s an L.A., L.A. alpha girl,
She breaks men's hearts and they fall apart
She's an L.A.alpha girl,
She eats men's hearts
She's an L.A., L.A. alpha girl!
L.A.alpha girl!
L.A.alpha girl!
