Maureen Lyrics

I pick her up outside the station
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
She's telling me about her spring vacation
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
She's not leaving much to the imagination
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
She's giving me way too much information
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)

Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry, I don't mean to shout
It's just that I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen

D-do you know what I mean?
D-do you know what I mean?
D-do you know what I mean?

She calls me up at ten past midnight
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
'Cause she and some guy just had some big fight
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
And I say, "Well, maybe he's just not all that bright"
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)
She tells me it's not his brain that she likes
(Uh uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh)

M-M-M-M-M-Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry, I don't mean to shout
But really, I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen

I know you think I'm just a friend
But can we please just put an end
To all the graphic imagery that you insist on feeding me?
I can't accept I'm not the one
Who's getting to have all the fun
And maybe that's what friends are for
But I just can't take it anymore

M-M-M-M-M-Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry, I don't mean to shout
But really, I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Can you keep it light?
Can you keep it clean?
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen

I believe the other comments on this song has got it wrong, i believe this song is about a guy who is friend a girl who keeps telling him EVERYTHING even the little most disgusting details so he gets way to much information. THIS IS NOT a song about a guy in the friendzone or anything like that he shows no sign that he is interested in dating her at all SHE IS JUST A FRIEND he is not jealous of ANYTHING

one of the reasons i love this song because i grew up playing a game called Thrillville: Off The Rails and this song was in it and its a great song

@MaxMaker18 yea honestly for me It sounds like he first got friend zoned yet now has no interest in the relationship. Silly song either way

I'll make this easy for everyone. This song is about my ex-girlfriend, now ex wife. She was dating a guy that very good friends with the singer (I forgot his name). The guy asked him to write a song named Maureen and he did for him as a favor. She talks a lot and is very into herself and shares details (She used to have sex in the back of cars in public for fun etc...) So the song is pretty accurate, except the real Maureen isn't quite as crazy.

@topofthemiddle His name is Chris.

@Steven66 yo bro did you just reply

so catchy..just a really great song. I think its about a guy who really likes this girl, but hates how she always tells him every detail of her life because it makes him jealous. He thinks that she thinks of him as a friend..but nothing more.

I can't believe that more people haven't commented this song.

So, the guy in this song really likes a girl..... but she can't stop talking. It makes me laugh because I'm like that, a total chatterbox. :)

Every broad I get into thinks of me this way. F&@k!!!
