See you hurry past the window; where you headed to? What would you say if I asked to go with you? I think you're the coolest girl that I've ever seen Let's go to the supermarket and look at magazines We can take the quiz and find out if we're really in love There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed Don't let her turn her ankle, fall, and bump her head There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed I came by your place; we went to get something to eat You asked me if you had anything between your teeth Running down hotel hallways, eating from the room service trays I know a piano if you know how to play You played the Buzzcocks and the Descendants There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed Don't let her turn her ankle, fall, and bump her head There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed Don't let her turn her ankle, fall, and bump her head There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed Known a lot of girls with your name; never meant that much to me before Now there's no other name that'll ever mean more And since I can't do much else, I thought I'd try to write you a song If my dreams come true, it's gonna get you singing along It's gonna be your brand new favorite song There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed Don't let her turn her ankle, fall, and bump her head There's a beautiful girl jumping on the There's a beautiful girl jumping on the There's a beautiful girl jumping on the bed

I went downtown to find myself a job At Temporary Employment Placement, Incorporated And sitting across the desk from me Was the prettiest girl that I've ever seen Oh, I just can't say no To my caseworker cutie, whoa-oh I'll do anything she tells me to do Caseworker cutie My caseworker cutie The work is temporary; my love is permanent But how can I ever broach the subject? If I tell her how I feel, our time is at an end Because that is something company policy forbids I read it in the handbook Oh, I just can't say no To my caseworker cutie, whoa-oh I'll do anything she tells me to do Caseworker cutie My caseworker cutie She's kinda my boss, yeah it's a little weird She's one of the reasons I haven't grown a beard The other is that I need a job Caseworker cutie Caseworker cutie, I need a job Oh, I just can't say no To my caseworker cutie, whoa-oh I'll do anything she tells me to do Caseworker cutie My caseworker cutie, I love you

One lane over on the freeway Separated lives I hate you—why do I feel this way? Separated lives One inch or a million miles between us What's the difference? Separated lives Dead man on the TV Separated lives I'm glad he doesn't look like me Separated lives Pepper spray in Tower Grove Separated lives One lane over on the freeway Separated lives I hate you—why do I feel this way? Separated lives Pepper spray in Tower Grove Separated lives

about

The Red Squares St. Louis, Missouri

Past their punk years, not quite mods, The Red Squares believe in the power of the power chord, in the militance of melody, in the righteousness of rhythm.

They play catchy populist rock n' roll and they want to change the world. They are unashamedly geeky, with a wide romantic streak and an unwillingness to talk down to people.

Modern pop action!
This is tomorrow!
