Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you cannot cry forever have you heard,
lovers like me we dont fall from no tree(uuh),
but you will find a substitute marie
Started out just fine and allright,
love was made, all through the night
but then came all the fussin and the fight,
where have you been, what have you done,
a million questions every time i've been gone,
your not my mother my sister nor my friend,
so just face it we came to that end
Get your shit togeather little girl,
you cannot cry forever have you heard,
lovers like me we dont fall from no tree(uuh),
but you will find a substitute marie
For a long long long long time,
you shared my bed my books and my pride,
i wanna meet you again somehow
but not today not tomorrow but maybe in a while
So
Get your shit togeather little girl,
you cannot cry forever have you heard,
lovers like me we dont fall from no tree(uuh),
but you will find a substitute marie (eeh)
(guitar)
Se i love you for a long time but now i dont love you nomore,
you better get your shit together.

The song "Little Girl" by Skaburbian Collective is a breakup song where the singer is telling his ex-girlfriend to move on and get over their relationship. He tells her to "get her shit together" and stop crying over him because he has moved on and found a new love. The singer emphasizes that he did love her for a long time, but now he doesn't anymore, and he wants her to let go of the relationship as well. He explains that lovers like him and the little girl don't fall from trees, but she will eventually find someone new to love, referring to "substitute Marie."
The song's lyrics use everyday language, including profanity, to create an emotionally raw and relatable message for anyone going through a breakup. The singer uses a guitar solo to emphasize the song's message, which adds to the melancholic feel and provides a moment of reflection for both the singer and the audience. The song's storyline is very familiar, as a lot of people find themselves in similar situations in relationships, and the song offers a glimmer of hope that one can move on from a failed relationship.

Started out just fine and allright,
Our relationship started well and was good,
love was made, all through the night
We were intimate all night long,
but then came all the fussin and the fight,
But then arguments and fights started happening,
oh babygirl you know this aint right
You know that our situation is not right, dear girl,
where have you been, what have you done,
I want to know where you went and what you did,
a million questions every time i've been gone,
I'm tired of being asked millions of questions every time I'm not around,
your not my mother my sister nor my friend,
You are not my mother, sister, or friend,
so just face it we came to that end
So face it, our relationship has come to an end.
For a long long long long time,
We were together for a very long time,
you shared my bed my books and my pride,
You shared my bed, my books, and my accomplishments,
i wanna meet you again somehow
I want to see you again someday,
but not today not tomorrow but maybe in a while
But not today or tomorrow, maybe sometime later.
Se i love you for a long time but now i dont love you nomore,
I loved you for a long time, but now I don't love you anymore.
you better get your shit together.
You should really get your act together.

Att inte de här bandet är världskända är för mig helt OTROLIGT! Skicka runt deras sånger till några radio stationer i USA bara för att jag gillar deras musik så mycket =) Keep it up!
