This song may be about a girl who is pulled around and manipulated easily. By a friend (group) or a partner, it’s not implied who’s doing it, but it’s shown that she’s pulled around like she’s literally on a string, going wherever her friend(s) or partner decide to go and doing whatever they decide...
[Verse 1]
I do believe you're moving at a pace
A little bit too slow for my taste
It's such a funny movie, why not go?
Yeah, don't you think you oughta know?
[Chorus]
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
[Verse 2]
Would you mind if I came back to you?
We could listen to the music you're into
It's such a crazy party, why not go?
Yeah, don't you think you oughta know?
[Chorus]
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
Are you a girl on a string?
