[Verse 1]
Bite your face to spite your nose
Seventeen and a half years old
Worrying about my brother finding out
Where's the fun in doin' what you're told?
[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "Yo"
"Oh, give it a rest, I could persuade you
I'm not your typical stoned eighteen-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 saviour"
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now
[Chorus]
Because they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's sеventeen
They're just girls
Thеy're just girls
[Verse 2]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, "Yo, I think I better go
I can't take you"
"You just sit and get stoned with thirty-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
[Chorus]
Because they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls
They're just girls
[Bridge]
Told her from the start
Destined to be hard
Told her from the start
And I'll break your heart
Destined to be hard
And I'll Break your heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, "Yo, I think I better go
I can't take you
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age
But girl, I'm not your saviour"
"Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age
Instead of making changes?"
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now
[Chorus]
Because they're just girls breaking hearts (Girls)
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls
They're just girls
They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls
They're just girls
They're just girls (Girls)
[Outro]
(Just girls)
(Just girls)
(Girls)
(Just girls)
(They're just girls)
(Girls)
(Girls)
