Verse 1

There is a girl I used to know  
She had a hundred ways of hurting you and so
I packed my bags and left her as she watched some TV show
There is a girl I used to know  

Verse 2

There is a town I used to love  
It once contained most everything I'd ever dare dreamed of
My baby in the basement whilst the traffic trawled above
There is a town I used to love  

Verse 3

There is a bar I used to know  
I still sometimes drop by when I have no place left to go
It's where the kings of comedy compare their tattered souls
There is a bar I used to know  

Middle 8

So buy me one more drink before you go 
Or lend me a twenty and I'll get drunk on my own 
You always find some company, come in to use the phone
Someone who can't stand to see a friend go home alone

Verse 4

There is a joke I used to tell  
Some guy who gets three wishes, ends up wasting them to hell
And in the end in misery, he tells the joke himself

Verse 5

There is a guy I used to know  
He once had everything that any man could hope
And now he sits here drinking with a tale that always goes
'There is a girl I used to know'
