At Hailey's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoo! Hey, Bobby! Check that out babe!

What, Dick? Where?

Right There!

Friday night and I need a fight
My motor(sic)le and a switchblade knife
Hand full of grease and my head feels right
But what I need to get me tight are Those

Girls, Girls, Girls
Long legs 'n burgundy lips
Girls, Girls, Girls
Dancin' down on Sunset Strip
Girls, Girls, Girls
Red lips, fingertips

Crazy Horse, Paris, France
Forgot the names, remember romance
I got the photos a fromage à trois
Musta Broke those frenchies' laws

With those

Girls, Girls, Girls
B-b-b body shop and the marble arch
Chicks, Chicks, Chicks
Tropicana's where I lost my heart
Girls, Girls, Girls
They got'em in Ipanema
Girls, Girls, Girls
My Brown-Eyed
Girls, Girls, Girls
With new-wave hairdo's on
Girls, Girls, Girls





Girls, Girls, Girls

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mötley Crüe's song "Girls, Girls, Girls" capture the essence of the wild and hedonistic lifestyle of a young man seeking pleasure and excitement. The opening lines of the song introduce the singer as someone who craves a fight on a Friday night and finds solace in riding his motorcycle with a switchblade knife in hand. He feels alive with adrenaline pumping through his veins, and the only thing that can take him to a higher level of excitement are the girls he desires.


The chorus of "Girls, Girls, Girls" reinforces this theme, as the singer describes the irresistible allure of women with long legs, burgundy lips, and red fingertips, who can be found dancing down on Sunset Strip. He reminisces about his adventures in Paris, France, where he indulged in a ménage à trois with two French women, breaking their country's laws. He also remembers his experiences with girls at the body shop, the marble arch, and Tropicana, places that hold a special place in his heart.


Overall, "Girls, Girls, Girls" is a celebration of the thrill of the hunt and the thrill of the conquest, with women as the object of desire. It is a reflection of the wild and rebellious nature of the 1980s youth culture, with its emphasis on excess and instant gratification.
