The 1975 Girls Lyrics

I bite your face despite your nose
Seventeen-and-a-half years old
Worrying about my brother finding out
Where's the fun in doing what you're told?
I said, "No! Oh, give it a rest, I could persuade you
I'm not your typical stoned eighteen-year-old
Give me a night, I'll make you
I know you're looking for salvation
In this secular age but, girl, I'm not your savior"
Wrestled to the ground, God help me now
It's just girls, breaking hearts
Eyes blind, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls, mmm, they're just girls
A pair of frozen hands to hold
Oh, she's so sad and so she feels the cold
One moment I was tearing off your blouse
Now you're living in my house
What happened to just messing around?
I said, "Yo! I think I better go, I can't take you
You just sit and get stoned with thirty-year-olds
And you think you've made it, well
Shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age
Instead of making changes?" Wrestle to the ground
God help me now, 'cause it's just girls
Breaking hearts, eyes blind, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls, mmm, they're just girls
Told her from the start, destined to be hard
Told her from the start, I'm breaking your heart
Destined to be hard, break your heart
I said, "Yo! I think I better go, I can't take you
I know you're looking for salvation
In this secular age but, girl, I'm not your savior
Shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age
Instead of making changes?" Wrestle to the ground
God help me, 'cause it's just girls
Breaking hearts, eyes blind, uptight, just girls
She can't be what you need if she's seventeen
They're just girls, mmm, they're just girls
