I Need My Girl Lyrics

[Chorus: Matt Berninger]
I am good, I am grounded
Davy says that I look taller
But I can't get my head around it
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I need my girl
I need my girl

[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]
Remember when you lost your sh!t and
Drove the car into the garden?
You got out and said "I'm sorry"
To the vines and no one saw it
I need my girl
I need my girl

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger]
I'm under the gun again
I know I was a 45-percenter then
I know I was a lot of things

[Chorus: Matt Berninger]
But I am good, I am grounded
Davy says that I look taller
But I can't get my head around it
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I need my girl
I need my girl

[Verse 2: Matt Berninger]
There's some things that I should never
Laugh about in front of family
I tried to call you from the party
It's full of punks and cannonballers
I need my girl
I need my girl

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger]
I'm under the gun again
I know I was a 45-percenter then
I know I was a lot of things

[Chorus: Matt Berninger]
But I am good, and I am grounded
Davy says that I look taller
But I can't get my head around it
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
