Well I'm goin' out
I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I hate TV
There's gotta be somebody
Other than me
Who's ready to write it off immediately
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'll know right away
By the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions
And she's worldly-wise
And I'll know when I give her a listen
That she, she's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'

I'll be lost in love
And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Well I'm goin' out
I'm goin' out lookin' for a cynical girl
Who's got no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl

Yeah I'll know right away
By the look in her eye
She harbors no illusions
And she's worldly-wise
And I'll know when I give her a listen
That she, she's what I've been missin'
What I've been missin'

I'll be lost in love
And havin' some fun with my cynical girl
Who'll have no use for the real world
I'm lookin' for a cynical girl
