Girlfriend
Men With Charm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you be my Girlfriend? [Repeat: x3]
I like you, right
Would you be my Girlfriend?

I don't know why you care
He doesn't even know you're there
Cause he don't love your eyes
And he don't love your smile
Girl you know that ain't fair

In the middle of the night
Is he going to be by your side
Or will he run and hide
You don't know cuz things ain't clear
And baby when you cry
Is he gonna stand by your side
Does the man even know you're alive
I got an idea

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend

Does he know what you feel
Are you sure that t's real
Does he ease your mind
Or does he break your stride
Did you know that love could be a shield

In the middle of the night correcting
Is he going to be BY your side
Or will he run and hide
You don't know cause things ain't clear
And baby when you cry
Is he gonna stand by your side
Does the man even know you're alive
I got an idea

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend

Ever since I saw your face
Nothing in my life has been the same
I'll walk around just saying your name
Without you, my world would end, yeah
I've looked around this whole, damn place
And everything says you were meant to be
My girlfriend, oh

Why don't you be my girlfriend
I'll treat you good
I know you hear your friends when they say
You should
Cause if you were my girlfriend
I'd be your shining star
The one who'll show you where you are
Girl you should be my girlfriend





Girl you should be My girlfriend [Repeat: x5]
My girlfriend

Overall Meaning

The song "Girlfriend" by Men With Charm is a plea to a woman who is currently in a relationship with someone else. The lead singer is making a case for why she should break up with her current boyfriend and be with him instead. He starts off by asking the woman to be his girlfriend, and reiterating this several times throughout the song. He then goes on to mention the faults of the woman's current boyfriend, such as not loving her eyes or smile, and not being there for her in times of need. He contrasts this by saying he would treat her well and be her "shining star." The lyrics also display a sense of urgency, as the lead singer questions whether the woman's current boyfriend will be there for her in the middle of the night or when she cries.


Overall, "Girlfriend" is a catchy song with a straightforward message. It's a relatable situation for many people, as most have dealt with unrequited love or wanting someone who is already in a relationship. The song uses simple language to convey a message of longing, and the repetition of the phrase "would you be my girlfriend" reinforces this.

The way young men & women are happily patronizing diabolism is seriously worrisome. I weep for this generation.

@chielubaenynwa7636

This generation believes in charm

@franciscaafanu6979

She should have discussed everything with Sammy if what she's saying is true. She keeps lying, who knows if she's not trying to use Sammy for money rituals and how rich is his uncle? Both Mary and her so called uncle are trying to use Sammy for money rituals. Sammy run as fast as your legs can carry you and may the Lord be your helper. Amen.

@user-rq5rh1zi5v

Don't ever follow her. She did it alone she should go alone. She did it to tie him down to herself. She's lying

@mariedames3240
