Girlfriends
Steve and the Jerks Lyrics

She said, "i need sometime to find myself
She told me that she needed time for herself to figure things out

I need a little space to think
She needed some time and space to reflect and ponder

And maybe we should start seeing other people
She suggested that we should break up and date other people

Baby, things are moving way too fast for me"
She felt that our relationship was progressing too quickly for her liking

So I picked up what was left of my pride
I gathered what little self-respect I had left

And i, I put on my walking shoes
I took a walk to clear my head

And I got up on that high road
I took the moral high ground despite being hurt

And I did what any gentleman would do
I acted chivalrously and without ill will

I um, I got a brand new girlfriend!
I found someone new to date and move on from my old relationship

We went and jumped off the deep end
We threw caution to the wind and did something impulsive

Flew out to l. A. for the weekend
We took a trip to Los Angeles for a few days

Spent the whole day lyin' on a beach
We relaxed on the beach for an entire day

Wearin' nothin' but a smile
We wore swimsuits and just had fun

Playin' kissy-kissy smoochy-smoochy
We kissed and cuddled

Talkin' mooshy-mooshy 'bout nothin'
We talked about random things and enjoyed each other's company

Man I think I'm onto somethin'
I feel like I've found something good in this new relationship

Because I feel just like a kid again
I feel carefree and happy like a child

I love it when she calls me buttercup
I enjoy when my new girlfriend has a sweet nickname for me

She laughs and says I left the toilet seat up
We joke around and tease each other about silly things

She pops the top for me, a cold beer
She opened a beer for me and is hospitable

And says my buddy's always welcome here
She is friendly and welcoming to my friends

When I get hungry she takes me out
She takes me out to eat when I'm hungry

I ridin' shotgun like a shitzu hound
I'm happy and eager to be with her, like how a dog enthusiastically rides in the car

My tails a waggin' my tongue's hangin' out
I'm excited and happy to be around her

It makes me wanna shout
I'm so happy I want to shout for joy

She likes to write our names in the sand
She is romantic and likes making memories with me

She's hearing wedding bells and making plans
She is already thinking about our future together

She's gonna hang around a while I guess
She plans to stay with me for a while

And she hadn't even told me she loves me yet
Even though she hasn't said she loves me yet, we are clearly committed to each other

She makes me feel just like a kid again
Our relationship has brought me happiness and carefree joy again
