Undercover Girl by David Versis

(verse)
The minute that she walk into the room // better believe it heads turn fast
Monroe sass // Hepburn class
Tryna do my best while I'm cleaning up the mess, that was left by the dude that had left her last
She shouldn't have to deal with that pain
But now she driving in the fast lane
And she got music in the back playin
Narrating her life say she leaving on a jet plane
With no regard for what she left behind
But how you 'pose to find love when you pressed for time
Why you living your life like you got shit to prove
Do you wrestle with love or is it stick and move
We barely fight but every time we do
I see the urgency and know that I need to
Erase the memory of every guy she knew
In need of intensive care baby, I see you (ICU)

(chorus)
Every time the lights go down, she's always leaving town
She's always on the run (run, run)
She's always on the run (run, run)
And Every time I come in close, something inside her knows
She's always on the run (run, run)
She's always on the run (run, run)
From me...

(verse)
Tryna get waves when the tides low
You need to pump your breaks baby drive slow
But you too busy tryna make them fellas eyes roll
Using every tip she found skimming through a cosmo
(huh) but she young shes learning still
But the pain is burning still
So every single page in her journal filled, with explanations saying she wish she was a virgin still
Just 'cus of a bastard and his lies
Turned an angel into a master of disguise
But if you got stress, you should get it off that pretty ass chest that distracts from your pretty ass eyes
Sayin that you keep it real
But you tryin to conceal
Every single little feeling that those puffy eyes reveal
And though you got pain and I'm seeing that it hurts
Cleaning wine up with water only ever makes it worse

(chorus)

(verse)
Perfume, Raybans
New shoes, spray tans
Trying to be somebody else, out of the fear that I'ma need somebody else
Reminiscing of the days, when things had been better
Why you following they trends you a trend setter
But because she damaged, I'm just here trying to manage
Help her carry all the baggage that she decided to bring with her
Can't keep chasing a train that don't plan on stopping
I can't help someone that don't wanna be helped
And me touching her, aint even an option
'cus she's afraid that touching, might lead to something else
Well baby I'ma show up // and get you shown off
Deserve to be blown away (uh) // not blown off
But since I'm going in // you be going off
I gave you the thrown // but lately I be thrown off (always on the run)

(chorus)

(bridge)
Scars on your heart, scrapes on your knees
Girl it aint hard let me be what you need tonight
I can be what you need tonight

Looking for love, torn at the seems
Girl it aint hard let me be what you need tonight
I can be what you need tonight
Uh...





(chorus)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of David Versis's song "Undercover Girl" are a detailed portrayal of a woman who is constantly on the run, from herself and from love. The chorus repeats the statement "she's always on the run," emphasizing her constant need to keep moving and not stay in one place for too long. The verse describes the singer as a woman with "Monroe sass // Hepburn class," who enters a room and turns heads. However, beneath the surface, she is still dealing with pain and hurt from past relationships. She runs away from her problems, driving in the fast lane and leaving behind everything she knows, including potential love interests.


The chorus is repeated twice, emphasizing the singer's constant need to avoid getting too close to anyone, as she is always on the run. The second verse touches on the idea of the singer's need to "make them fellas eyes roll," possibly alluding to her tendency to seek validation from superficial sources, such as her appearance, rather than dealing with the internal hurt that she is experiencing. The bridge offers a space for the singer's vulnerability, where the artist offers their support and offers to be what she needs that night. However, ultimately, the artist cannot force her to change her ways.
