Girls ~ THE 1975

Bite your face to spite your nose

17 And a half years old

I'm worrying about my brother finding out

What’s the fun in doing what you're told? 

I said "no!"

"Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you

I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old

Give me a night I'll make you'' 

"I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age, but girl I'm not your savior" 

Wrestle to the ground 

God help me now, 'cause 

They're just girls breaking hearts

Eyes bright, uptight, just girls

But she can't be what you need if she's 17

They're just girls 

They're just girls 

A pair of frozen hands to hold

Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold

One moment I was tearing off your blouse

Now you're living in my house 

What happened to just messing around? 

I said, "Yo, I think I better go

I can't take you

You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it"

"Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?" 

Wrestle to the ground 

God help me now, 'cause 

They're just girls breaking hearts

Eyes bright, uptight, just girls

But she can't be what you need if she's 17

They're just girls 

They're just girls 

I told her from the start

Destined to be hard

I told her from the start

"I’ll break your heart" 

Destined to be hard 

Break your heart 

I said, "Yo, I think I better go

I can't take you

You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it"

"Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?" 

Wrestle to the ground 

God help me now, 'cause 

They're just girls breaking hearts

Eyes bright, uptight, just girls

But she can't be what you need if she's 17

They're just girls 

They're just girls 

They're just girls breaking hearts

Eyes bright, uptight, just girls

But she can't be what you need if she's 17

They're just girls 

They're just girls 

Because they're just girls
