Rebel Girl Lyrics
She's got the hottest trike in town
That girl she holds her head up so high
I think I wanna be her best friend
Rebel Girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes
In her hips, there's revolution
When she talks, I hear the revolution
In her kiss, I taste the revolution
Rebel Girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes
I got news for you -- she is!
They say she's a slut, but I know
She is my best friend
I really like you, I really love you
I really wanna be your best friend
Love you like a sister always
Soul sister, blood sister
Please be my rebel girl

MystikAura - Bikini Kill don't exist anymore but thier frontwoman Kathleen Hanna has another band around now called Le Tigre...you should check them out they are really good.
I adore this song :)

This song is about unconditional love for your best friend. She doesnt care about how people think she is a slut, because she thinks that rebel girl is the coolest person in the whole world.
@moishi Yeah right, it could be so. I wrote the lyrics, but it is so many years ago that it can be hard to remember the meaning and the details, but I have it more clearly now. I wrote the lyric for the song "Rebel Girl" back in 1990/91, when I was a student at Evergreen State College, met the Bikini Kill girls there. It was written especially to Kathleen, I think, but had aquaintances with both Toby and Kathleen, so it could be both.

She's got the hottest trike in town
Does anyone know what a trike is??? Please !!!!!! If you know, E-mail me or something: fruitsy87@yahoo.no
@alice_in_wonderland Hey, I wonder if "trike" could be some kind of clothing. It seems like the "rebel girl" had nice outfit, interesting clothes. I also refer to the stanza "I wanna try on your clothes, uh". Could be that, or else it could be a photocameras stand, hehe. Difficult to say. But let`s say the term "Trike" refer to a piece of clothing. I can maybe actually have written the lyric for the song "Rebel Girl", but not sure. It was written to Kathleen Hannah, or Toby. I wrote the lyric maybe in 1990/91, possibly summer of 91. I was...

trike = tricycle
i believe the song is referring to a three wheeled ATV (all terrain vehicle). you know, like a quad.

@vadge The question is if Kathleen or Toby had a tricycle or not? That would or could answer the question. If not, it`s probably another word for a clothing, like "tricot", became "trike", a slang for that, maybe.

yes I agree it is an amazing song. This was the first song I heard from them, and then I was hooked on Kathleen Hanna's beautiful way of thinking. Le Tigre is amazing as well!!! Women can kick ass!!
@TaLeNa824 Probably, it was I that wrote the lyric for the song "Rebel Girl", but Kathleen Hanna could have same intellectuality, or knowedge about different issues, I think.

REBEL GIRL U ARE THE QUEEN OF MYYYY WORLD!
i love this so much!

The lyric was probably written by me back in 1990/91, when I was a student at Evergreen State College, at Olympia, in Washington/USA. Met there the Bikini Kill girls, and especially Kathleen Hannah, and Tobi Vail. Got to know Kathleen and Tobi better, and had some relationship play with both of them. "Rebel Girl" was dedicated especially to one of them. Can't remember which of them, contemporary, hehe. Valued both equally, but possibly in different ways. Who I am? I am Martin Vikene (b.1975), back then my name was Morten Taraldsvik.
