Hello Little Girl
The Brymers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello little girl
Hello little girl
Hello little girl

When I see you everyday
I say, "Mm mm hello little girl"
When you're passing on your way
I say, "Mm mm hello little girl"
When I see you passing by
I cry, "Mm mm hello little girl"
When I try to catch your eye
I cry, "Mm mm hello little girl"

I send you flowers but you don't care
You never seem to see me standing there
I often wonder what you're thinking of
I hope it's me and love love love

So I hope there'll come a day
When you'll say, "Mm you're my little girl"

It's not the first time that it's happened to me,
It's been a long lonely time
And it's funny funny to see that I'm about to lose my mind mind mind

So I hope there'll come a day
When you say, "Mm mm
You're my little girl, mm mm mm
You're my little girl, mm mm mm"
You're my little girl, oh yeah
You're my little girl





Do do do do do

Overall Meaning

The Brymers' song "Hello Little Girl" is a classic example of unrequited love. The singer sings to a girl who he sees every day but doesn't seem to notice him. Despite sending her flowers, the girl still doesn't seem to care about him. The singer is desperate for her affection and longs for the day when she will recognize him as her "little girl". The repetition of "hello little girl" creates a sense of both desperation and hopefulness. The singer is trying to get the girl's attention, saying hello to her every time he sees her.


The song's lyrics explore the themes of unrequited love and the pain of rejection. The singer is clearly infatuated with the girl and wants her to notice him. However, despite his efforts, she remains oblivious to his presence. The lyrics also reflect the societal norms of the time, with the man being the pursuer and the woman being the pursued.
