The girls on Wilton could be movie stars
But they sit and watch their men work on their motor cars
Jessica pedals, Angela steers
What’ll they do in twenty five years
And I wonder if they wonder what they’re gonna be gonna be gonna be
The girls on Wilton sit out on the porch at night
I wonder if they brush their hair by candlelight
Garbage men sit around, it looks like hell
Nobody can speak English too well
And I’m hoping that they’re hoping that they’re gonna be gonna be gonna be
Something good
Something inspired
Something good
Like some urban Robin Hood
Extraordinarily good
Somebody brilliant
Somebody who
Does something different
Does something new
Does something better than the others do
Better than Edison and Freemont do…
The girls on Wilton could be Bridget Bardot if they had an agent
The girls on Wilton could be Mia Farrow if they had a resume and headshot
But they’d also need 9 by 12 envelopes
And they would rather just elope
With the guys across the street in the bright red Chevrolet
Their honeymoon’s planned for this Saturday
It’s on Wilton street
It’s on Wilton street
It’s on Wilton street
