Written by Mark Hollis and producer Tim Friese-Greene, this song is about a sex worker, through the eyes of a man watching her. “‘Dum Dum Girl’ isn’t miserable, I just think of it as an anti-prostitution song, that’s what it is.” Mark Hollis is quoted as telling The Record Mirror.
Dum Dum Girl Lyrics
[Chorus]
Dum, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
[Verse 1]
Another sign with no regret
More coins inside her hand
One more time to own respect
No mercenary she stands
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm no boy
Stealing pennies from the poor
Break it down
Can't you see she's
[Chorus]
Dum, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
[Verse 2]
Another hand upon her hair
Time probably erased
Distaste, and so she's left
Where guilt is out of place
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm no boy
Stealing pennies from the poor
Break it down
Can't you see she's
[Chorus]
Dum, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm no boy
Stealing pennies from the poor
Break it down
Can't you see she's
[Chorus]
Dum, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
The dum-dum girl, the dum-dum girl
