Shes Expensive
The Virgins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come to an early end
Let's have a court cave brunch,
I really shouldn't stay
And she kicks her heels off
It takes a lot to change her mind
I can't stop myself from chasing
she's expensive, she's expensive.
I can't stop myself from chasing.
she's going out again
She's fascinating man
Her eyes are pale and grey
She pushes him away
I can't stay here no more
it takes a lot to change her mind
She's expensive, she's expensive.
She's expensive, she's expensive.
I can't stop myself from chasing.
what makes the girls on the street sing?
Oh, for what its worth to see you moan x2
what makes the girls on the street sing?
Oh, for what its worth to see you moan x2
she's expensive, she's expensive.
I can't stop myself from chasing. x3
In The Virgins' song "She's Expensive," the lyrics describe a girl who is elusive and difficult to pin down. The singer is drawn to her despite her high cost, both financially and emotionally. He describes her as fascinating, with pale grey eyes, and someone who can't be easily persuaded to change her mind. She goes out frequently, leaving the singer feeling restless and unsure of his place in her life. The repeated refrain of "she's expensive" emphasizes the costliness of being involved with her, but the singer's desire to continue chasing her persists.
The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to go to great lengths to be with this girl, despite the fact that she may not reciprocate his feelings. He's caught in a cycle of constantly chasing her, unable to resist her allure despite its high price. The repeated line "I can't stop myself from chasing" underscores the sense of obsession driving the singer's actions. At the same time, the singer recognizes that he's in a precarious position emotionally, as he can't bring himself to walk away even though he knows it may not end well.
Overall, "She's Expensive" is a song about the high cost of desire, both in terms of the material objects the singer might have to provide to win the girl's affection and the emotional toll of constantly pursuing someone who may not feel the same way. The lyrics are somewhat ambiguous, leaving it to the listener to interpret exactly why the girl is so expensive and what keeps the singer coming back to her. However, the song's catchy melody and driving beat make it a memorable addition to The Virgins' discography.
