Girlfriend
Billie Piper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You and your friends, baby
And I heard you say they're playing a jam
(there's a jam right here baby)
So waving your hand
from side to side sugar
Hear you're claiming you're a certified man
(certified)
I know it might sound strange
But I pictured us alone
And you're kissing me in ways I can't tell - no
If my thoughts of you are true
Then I wanna get with you
So I'll step in while I'm given the chance - yeah
Do you have a girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend?
You're looking real cool You're looking real cool
Can I have your number? Can I have your number?
You don't have a thing to lose
Do you have a minute? Do you have a minute?
What is on your mind? What is on your mind?
I was just thinking I was just thinking
We can spend some time
Heard a slow song
You don't waste time baby
When you asked me if I wanted to dance
(sure I wanna dance)
Playing hard to get takes too long, sugar
So I told my friends that I found a man
(you're the one)
I know it mind sound strange
But I pictured us alone
And you're kissing me in ways I can't tell - no
If my thoughts of you are true
Then I wanna get with you
So I'll step in while I'm given the chance - yeah
Do you have a girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend?
You're looking real cool You're lookinh real cool
Can I have your number? Can I have your number?
You don't have a thing to lose
Do you have a minute? Do you have a minute?
