New Girl Now Lyrics

Hot summer night
Storm lies in the air
My eyes are a little heavy
I'm feeling in the past tense
I'm hardly aware

I don't want you on the phone
don't you play good girl with me
Why must I always say it again

I've got a new girl now
I've got a new girl now
I've got a new girl now
And she's a lot like you

I tried to wash my face
But my head fell to low
I tried to bury myself
But my mind wouldn't stay at home

I don't care if you're sitting at home
somebody has broken into me
Why must I always say it again

I got a new girl now
I got a new girl now
I got a new girl now
And she's a lot like you

I don't want you on the phone
don't you play good girl with me
Why must I always say it again

I've got a new girl now
I've got a new girl now
I've got a new girl now
And she's a lot like you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

No comments for this gem of the 80's?

I 'rediscovered' this song as my new pickup truck came with a year's subscription to Sirius Radio, and 'Classic Rewind' plays this about 1x per day...

The song's about the haunting memory/guilt of a breakup, the girl wants the singer back, and he's feeling guilt about how he's left her. She isn't actually stalking him, and the words of the song, taken slightly out of context would indicate he's a controlling/domineering type ("Don't you play Good Girl with me").

Instead, it's his own guilt. "I don't want you on the phone" is his recall of her, not an actual phone call. The whole kicker to the song is that the new girl is a lot like the old one... trying to replace her and restore the memory.

I have to say I love the sneer on the word 'me' in that "Don't you play Good Girl with ME' :)

Just a catchy tune that exemplified early 80's popular rock (and Canadian Hair Bands).
