Lyrics
Girls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look like a girl but I think like a guy
Not ladylike to behave like a slime
Easy to be sleazy when you've got a filthy mind
You stick to your yogurts
I'll stick to my apple pie
Girls are not meant to fight dirty
Never look a day past thirty
Not gonna bend over and curtsy for you
Is there any possibility, you'll quit gossiping about me
To hide your insecurities, all you say is: Blah, blah
Girls they never befriend me
'Cause I fall asleep when they speak
Of all the calories they eat
All they say is na na na na (na na na na na)
Girls, oh girls, wag your tails to the beat
Of girls aloud, all the journos on heat
Write such good stories
Oh, their mothers must be proud
Making money off your insecurity and doubt
Girls are not meant to fight dirty
Never look a day past thirty
Not gonna bend over and curtsy for you
Is there any possibility you'll quit gossiping about me
To hide your insecurities, all you say is blah, blah
Girls they never befriend me
'Cause I fall asleep when they speak
Of all the calories they eat
All they say is na na na na (na na na na na)
All they say is na na na na (na na na na na)
(I feel) I feel I've been riding in a fast car
Burning dirty gas won't get you that far
I feel I've been riding up the wrong path
But I'm gonna make sure I get the last laugh
Is there any possibility, you'll quit gossiping about me
To hide your insecurities, all you say is: Blah, blah
Girls they never befriend me
'Cause I fall asleep when they speak
Of all the calories they eat
All they say is na na na na na (wag you tails, wag your tails to the beat)
Na na na na na (wag you tails, wag your tails to the beat)
All they say is na na na na na (wag you tails, wag your tails to the beat)
Na na na na na (wag you tails, wag your tails to the beat)
