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 And they want to know how girls talk And 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 getting faded You may not be an old-fashioned girl But you're gonna get dated "Was it really murder?" "Were you just pretending?"

"You are the living end" Girls talk And they want to know how girls talk And they say it's not allowed, girls talk And they think they know how girls talk If they say that it's so Don't they think that I'd now by now? But I can't say The words you want to hear I suppose you're gonna have to Play it by ear, I hear There are some things you can't cover up With lipstick and powder But 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
