My mother says "when you gonna live your life right?"
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
And girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells what you gonna do with your life
But girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have fun
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls--they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun,
They wanna have fun,
They wanna have fun
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have fun
Oh oh oh
Girls girls girls
Wanna have fun fun fun fun yeah
