Girls Girls Girls Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girls, girls, girls (2x)

Yellow
red
black or white
add a little bit of moonlight
For this intercontinental romance.
Shy girl
sexy girl
they all like that fancy world
Champagne
a gentle song and a slow dance.
Who makes it fun to spend your money

Who calls you honey
most every day.
Girls, girls, girls (2x)
Well
they made 'em up in Hollywood
and put them into the movie
Those lovely photographic splendors;
In and out of magazines
Miss World and beauty queens
Falling in love with the real big spenders.
But although their world may be frantic
They're still romantic
in their own way.

refrain:
So hop on
the world is swinging.
Don't sit and twiddle your thumbs.
Get up and meet those pretty
Girls, girls, girls
Step on
the world keeps swinging.
Put on the dazzling charm.
Get up and find those pretty girls.
But don't rush
keep it nice and gentle
And sentimental
for that certain moment.

Moonlit oceans
girls full of emotions
Stepping on that slow boat to China;
And next door
in Japan
they know how to please a man
Dropping in for tea with my geisha.
They've got that old-fashioned feeling
When it comes to pleasing
they know their way.

refrain

When you draw back the curtain.
Hop on
the world is swinging.




Don't sit and twiddle your thumbs.
Get up and meet those pretty girls.

Could be released just like that without any changes and it would absolutely pass as a brand new song. That's how timeless it is.
