Dave Edmunds - Girls Talk

This song's called Girls Talk

There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
Thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?

Don't come any closer
Don't come any nearer
My vision of you
Can't come any clearer
Oh, I just want to hear girls talk

Got a loaded imagination
Bein' fired by girls talk
It's a more or less situation
Inspired by girls talk

But I can't say
The words you want to hear
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear
Right here

And now, girls talk
But they want to know how girls talk
They say it's not allowed, girls talk
If they say that it's so
Don't they think that I'd know by now?

Got the word up on everyone's lipstick
That you're dedicated
You may not be an old-fashioned girl
But you're gonna get dated

Was it really murder?
Were you just pretending?
Lately, I have heard
You are the living end

But they want to know how girls talk
They say it's not allowed, girls talk
They think they know how girls talk
If they say that it's so
Don't they think that I'd know by now?

But I can't say
The words you want to hear
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear
Right here

There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
Thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?

Don't come any closer
Don't come any nearer
My vision of you
Can't come any clearer

Oh, how girls talk
But they want to know how girls talk
They say it's not allowed, girls talk
Girls talk, girls talk
Girls talk, girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, girls talk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, girls talk
