Poster Girl

(album: Never Gone - 2005)

Jodie was a long way from home
She could make alone look pretty
Her attitude made a part of the landscape
Riding her bike through Alphabet City
She likes to party in the backseat
Under the bridge on the Brooklyn side
Smoking cigarettes in the afterglow
Taking bets that the sun won't rise

She said
"What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?"
She can lick her lips and smile
And make you wanna believe

That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day
She says, "Nothing's forever in this crazy world."
Still I'm falling in love
With the right now poster girl

Right now, right now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (oh, oh-oh)

Jodie like to shoplift in stores
Ride alongside the rich and famous
Get in elevators, press emergency stops
And make love on the floor 'til the camera made us
And no woman in the world
Ever made me feel like my heart's on fire
Where she'd walk, I followed (followed)
When she left, I cried

What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?
And I was wrapped around her finger
And I began to believe

That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day
She says, "Nothing's forever in this crazy world."
Still I'm falling in love
With the right now poster girl
That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day (day by day)
She says, "Nothing's forever in this crazy world." (crazy world)
Still I'm falling in love
With the right now poster girl

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
(La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la (oh!)

Tell me what you want from me
I've got everything you need
It's getting hard for me to breathe
Let me be your guarantee, oh-oh!

That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day (day by day)
She says, "Nothing's forever (forever) in this crazy world."
Still I'm falling in love
With the right now poster girl (poster girl)
That the consequences of your actions
Really are just a game (a game)
That your life is just a chain reaction
Taking you day by day (day by day!)
She says, "Nothing's forever (forever)
In this crazy world." (crazy world)
Still I'm falling in love
With the right now poster girl

Right now, right now
Right now, oh, oh-oh
Poster girl, poster girl yeah
C'mon, c'mon
