[Intro]
Girls talk
[Verse 1]
There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
I thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?
[Refrain]
Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't come any clearer
Oh, I just wanna hear girls talk
[Verse 2]
Got a loaded imagination
Bein' fired by girls talk
It's a more-or-less situation
Inspired by girls talk
[Refrain]
But I can't say (Can't say) the words you wanna hear (Wanna hear)
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear
Right here and now
[Chorus]
Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
If they say that it's so, don't you think that I'd know by now?
[Verse 2]
Got the word upon everyone's lipstick
That you'rе getting faded
You may not be an old-fashionеd girl
But you're gonna get dated
[Refrain]
Was it really murder? Were you just pretending?
Lately, I have heard you are the living end
[Chorus]
Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
And they think they know how
Girls talk
If they say that it's so, don't you think that I'd know by now?
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
But I can't say the words you wanna hear
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear (By ear)
[Verse 1]
There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
But I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?
[Refrain]
Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't come any clearer
[Chorus]
Girls talk
And they wanna know how
Girls talk
And they say it's not allowed
Girls talk
And they think they know now
Girls talk
[Outro]
Girls talk, girls talk
Girls talk, girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
