The Girl's a Straight-Up Hustler Lyrics

Lipstick has a way of leaving
More than just a mark on my sheets
Coloring my senses cherry red
At least for this week
Kisses under starry night skies
Talked about in song
We play along
So bittersweet by our design

I'm sick and tired of
Writing songs about you
This is it, this is the end

Take off your makeup
And put down the camera
Choke on the drama
That makes me want to
Tear up the pictures
The pages you've saved
Creating a life of
Trends and make-believe

I've got no place in my heart
For a criminal like you
To dwell in this endeavor
Make this last forever

I'm just delirious
You can't be serious
You're so infamous
For leaving me a mess

Take off your makeup
And put down the camera
Choke on the drama
That makes me want to
Tear up the pictures
The pages you've saved
Creating a life of
Trends and make-believe

She gets what she wants
And she breaks what she gets
Get out while you can
Or she'll tear you to pieces

She gets what she wants
And she breaks what she gets
Get out while you can
Or she'll tear you to pieces
Are you having a good time, sweetheart?

Take off your makeup
And put down the camera
Choke on the drama
That makes me want to
Tear up the pictures
The pages you've saved
Creating a life of
Trends and make-believe

Carry on home
I'll be waiting miles and miles away
Leaving you to be forever seventeen
Cleaning up the messes that you've made

jeez can you believe that these guys are only 17 years old? this song is amazing. It's definitely a sad song but WOW. It's most likely about a girl who really did tear this guy to pieces and she didn't mind doing it. The guy is a mess now because of her. Beautiful song

Matt Flyzick does a good job on back up vocals "She gets what she wants And she breaks what she gets Get out while you can Or she'll tear you to pieces Are you having a good time, sweetheart?"

It's about a guy who is dating a girl who is completely into the stereotypical drama of a teenage party image. The girl is only interesting in partying and having fun with others, and doesn't really care about the guy.

Song Meaning
Cover art for The Girl's a Straight-Up Hustler lyrics by All Time Low

I feel like this song is about a girl being a "player," as you would call it, and going around and dating lots of guys then breaking their hearts. For example the line "She gets what she wants and she breaks what she gets" means that she always gets the guys she wants but then she breaks their hearts. Also, the line "You're so infamous for leaving me a mess" could be interpreted as it being the girl who broke his heart is famous around their school or town for hurting boys and breaking their hearts.

My Interpretation

She gets what she wants and she breaks what she gets, get out while you can or she'll tear you to pieces

love this song

OMG! don't people relize its slightly about a ex or maybe even a porn star..... PUT DOWN THE CAMERA, CHOKE ON THE DRAMA -- (choke on "it") -- TEAR UP THE PICS;;; etc "are you having a good time" as in, do u like what u do? I think thats part of it :) amazing song... his lyrics r so meaningful, u can tell by how he sings them :)

i think your reading way too far into it. its about breaking up. more about a girl who either uses guys or is just really bad at relationships and breaks guys hearts. not a porn star...

actually its about sexting, he said it was at a concert i went to, hence, "put down the camera"

"Are you having a good time sweetheart?"

I love how sings that. I think he's just blowing off some steam about an ex-girlfriend that had some issues, and tried to bring him down with her.

No, because these guys don't sound like complete crap.

WOW!

@twentyxsurgery they are both pop punk bands ... but different sounds.

Its about a girl and she stole his heart, but she's fake "Take off your make up" and is in love with him but does god knows what behind his back....and no, they sound nothing like fallout boy

I love the lyrics to this song. And the "She gets what she wants and she breaks what she gets, get out while you can or she'll tear you to pieces / "Are you having a good time sweetheart?"" part is so pretty with the music and stuff. Amazing song

Carry on home, I'll be waiting miles and miles away, leaving you to be forever seventeen, cleaning up the messes that you've made.
