Girls
Lola D. Pearl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thieves in the window
Trouble down the hall
The resin white ceiling
Blood, dripping, flows
Out on the front line
Preachers sweep the earth
Out on their backsides
With nothing in common, with no problem

She's just a girl
Just, just a girl, yeah
Just one time around
She has little chance to make good
Distance of her lie
Decided in the woods

Burning fires
She's led to police
This maid in progress
Betrayin' your mother's need for a shelter

Oh, just a girl
Just, just a girl
Just one time around
She had little chance to make good
Treats them now, she's young
But it can be taken away
Just one time around, can be taken away
We all make mistakes

Hush my baby
Don't you cry
You're my little alibi
Oh baby, please
I need some sleep
Now be taking
You with me

Just a girl
Just a girl
Just a girl
Just a girl




Just a girl
Just a kid, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lola D. Pearl's song "Girls" describe the difficult and often unfair circumstances that girls face as they try to navigate their way through life. The first verse paints a picture of a world where danger and violence are everywhere, with "Thieves in the window" and "Trouble down the hall". The image of "The resin white ceiling/Blood, dripping, flows" suggests a harsh and unforgiving environment where people are hurt and forgotten.


In contrast to this violent world, the chorus focuses on the central figure of the song - "Just a girl". The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the singer's youth and vulnerability, without suggesting that these qualities make her weak or powerless. Instead, the lyrics suggest that the "distance of her lie/Decided in the woods", showing that she is capable of making her own choices and finding her own way, even when the odds are stacked against her.


The second verse adds further details to the story, with images of "Burning fires/She's led to police" suggesting that the singer has made some kind of mistake and is now facing the consequences. Despite this, the chorus repeats the idea that "she's just a girl", emphasizing her youth and inexperience. The final lines - "We all make mistakes" - suggest that the singer is sympathetic to the painful and often humiliating process of growing up.


Overall, Lola D. Pearl's "Girls" is a powerful and emotional anthem for young women everywhere, acknowledging the difficulties they face while also celebrating their strength and resilience in the face of adversity.
