Hey Now Girl Lyrics
Well let me tell you I have seen
A monster age of seventeen
Who'll let you in to kick you out
And knows what love is all about
Well, hey now girl
I see you walking by
And long ago you used to stop and talk
Now you just wink your eye
And i'm surprised
You look all grown up now
Champaign glass next to a paper cup
You stop just to
Say hey now girl
Hey now girl
Her tongue is black haven't you heard
Her mutter those three dirty words
For all the foolish boys to hear
Like a siren ringing ships so near
Well, hey now girl
I see you walking by
And I remember how you used to smile
How hard you used to to try
It's in your eyes
And now I'm in a trance
I went next to a spring to
Chill and you stopped just to say
Hey now girl
Hey now girl
Well, hey now girl
Uh huh
Well, hey now girl
Well, hey now girl
Who let you out into this world
Hey now girl
A monster age of seventeen
Who'll let you in to kick you out
And knows what love is all about
I see you walking by
And long ago you used to stop and talk
Now you just wink your eye
You look all grown up now
Champaign glass next to a paper cup
You stop just to
Say hey now girl
Hey now girl
Her mutter those three dirty words
For all the foolish boys to hear
Like a siren ringing ships so near
I see you walking by
And I remember how you used to smile
How hard you used to to try
And now I'm in a trance
I went next to a spring to
Chill and you stopped just to say
Hey now girl
Well, hey now girl
Uh huh
Well, hey now girl
Who let you out into this world
Hey now girl

this song i awesome, its my favorite on the guest cd
I love this song... it describes the period of life where you think you're grown up even though you're not quite there
this is a great song..the best line is..'and long ago you used to stop and talk now you just wink your eye'...it sounds like this guy i know
Her tongue is black haven't you heard Her mutter those three dirty words For all the foolish boys to hear Like a siren ringing ships so near
With reason to be repeated.
i love the beginning of this song. ahhh phantom planet rocks so hard
it's not "I went next to a spring to / Chill and you stopped just to say " its "A winter chill next to a spring romance"
"Her tongue is black, haven't you heard her mutter those three dirty words for all those foolish boys to hear, like a siren bringing ships so near"
Not much different in the lyrics, but i think that makes it easier to understand. Also it is bringing ships so near not ringing. Sirens like the greek myth not like the bell. They sing a song and sailors go towards it only to run into rocks and their boats sink.
And Bean is right it is definitely the spring romance line instead of what it is above.
"Champagne glass next to a paper cup" Reference to the Death Cab song "Champagne From A Paper Cup"?
to me, it is a girl who has a very high opinion of herself and when he says "her tongue is black havent you heard her mutter those three dirty words" she is always tellin guys "i love you" when she never really has known love she is just an dumb girl who thinks she can play around with it
