Emergency
Headgirl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spent too many nights getting out of my head
They must be mad, must be blind
Driving me crazy right out of my mind
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
Oh no
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
Emergency emergency
Can't seem to think, can't decide
Times running out on the other side
Where to run, what to do
Better not hide so I can't find you
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
Oh no
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
(Emergency)
Nine nine nine emergency
