Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl
Daddy can be rough
That's why I can be tough
Thick skin
Even when it comes to little bit of love.
Around doing stuff
Police put me in cuffs
Eat a dick, damn right,
I am a diamond in the rough
Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl
Shirts, tops, tees
I'm always in tight jeans
I know Billie Jean
I know Bruce Springsteen
I also know Palestine
And mujahideen
Playing Tekken on the weekend
Eating Mangosteen
Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl, Illygirl
Beat beat machine
Trying to stream with my team
I'm forming a bomb
Have you heard my dream?
Even Martin Luther schemed
So I put it down
Then I try to explain what it means
That's why I can be tough
Thick skin
Even when it comes to little bit of love.

I kinda think that Illygirl is something similar to Britney Spears "If You Seek Amy" and no I don't mean the songs are similar in any way at all. I mean how the lyrics are done. If You Seek Amy is a clever way of saying F-U-C-K Me. I think she's saying I'm an illygirl really meaning "I'm an illegal" which is why she references Police, Billie Jean & Bruce Springsteen, Martin Luther, etc. It wouldn't be the first time M.I.A. has done a song involving politics.
Very well said! I've a dj friend who actually wants to name the remix he's working on for this track (Illegal Immigrants Mix).

It's pretty obvious which lines are wrong. I figured it would get rejected if it was full of question marks, so I made stuff up. Anyone want to help me fix it? Lol.

Thanks. Most of my guesses are pretty pitiful, I just really want to know the whole song.

Lean mean machine instead of neat neat machine.
Martin luther's keen.
That's all I can correct haha. Sure she says "I'm from England" but then can't understand what she says after that.
Oh, and after Bruce springsteen she says Palestine.

instead of "im forming a bomb" its "Im from England, from Mitcham near Cheam"
