She's So Particular
(George Gelish)

This pic has always been a fave, because the person who took it came from Holland. They took the picture and I forgot all about it. Months later, I get an envelope from Holland with this pic. How cool is that?

This is my old standby. For a song I wrote in about ten minutes it's really stood the test of time! I think what I like about this song is its honesty and the fact that everybody knows someone like the girl I'm describing in the song.

She's all made up, she looks just right,
All dressed up for another lonely night.
She's so particular, so particular
She's got her ninety dollar dress,
Her hair's so neat, her mind's a mess,
She's so particular, so particular

Chorus

And she's never never never never never gonna give it up,
Give it up, baby give it up,

And she's never never never never never gonna give it up,
Give it up, baby give it up!

When she gets paid her money's spent,
Got brand-new shoes, can't pay the rent,
She's so particular, so particular,
No guy is ever good enough,
She's so let down, it must be rough,
She's so particular, so particular.

Chorus

She had a guy who liked her once,
But he could never measure up,
She's so particular, so particular,
She's gonna wind up all alone,
She'd better go pick up the phone,
She's so particular, so particular.

Chorus
