| “ | Back into the rock pile, starting with 'Anti-Hero' to see if we might resurrect its fading chances. After much dilly-dally I arrived at the stunning conclusion that the chorus needed to be better. And lo! The chorus was improved with melodic tricks of invention (i.e. repeat the best hook ad nauseum). | ” |

Lyrics
Never been kissed by a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, love me true, ooh
Everything I want I had to have
And with madness it's love that's sad
Trust little baby, oh can't you see, ooh
It's me
Ode to the alien weekend
What they bring starts to turn slow
You said should have borne weakness
And built that happy home
With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, oh can't you please, ooh
With a girl like you, vroom
With a girl like you, ooh
With a girl like you
Times that preach how it's been
As I stroll in turn without
You're so alone they'll let you in
Ooh, if they let you in
Odes to the alien weekend
Sold where it starts to burn slow
You said should have borne weakness
And built my happy home
With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
To love me baby, oh can't you please, ooh
With a girl like you, vroom
With a girl like you, ooh
With a girl like you, vroom
With a girl like you
You can say I will listen
You can swear 'no more'
You can blur all tradition 'till I'm bored
With a girl like you
With a girl like you, ooh
With a girl like you, ooh, ooh
I'm so alive with a girl like you
I'm so alive with a girl like you
Trust little baby, oh can't you please, vroom
A girl like you
