I Kissed A Girl

Jill Sobule

Jenny came over and told me 'bout Brad
He's such a "harry" but you know what he said?
Dumb as a box of hammers
But he's such a handsome guy.

And I opened up and I told her 'bout Larry
And yesterday how he asked me to marry
And I'm not giving him an answer yet
I think I can do better!

So we laughed
Compared notes
We had a drink
We had a smoke
She took off her overcoat
I kissed a girl.
I kissed a girl.

She called home to say she'd be late
He said he'd worried but now he'd feel safe
I'm glad your with your girlfriend
Tell her "hi" for me.

And then I looked at you
You had guilt in your eyes
But it only lasted a little while
And then I felt your hand above my knee.

And we laughed
At the world
They can have their diamonds
And we'll have our pearl
I kissed a girl.
I kissed a girl.

I kissed a girl
Her lips were sweet.
She was just like kissing me
Kissed a girl won't change the world
But I'm so glad,
I kissed a girl!

And we laughed
At the world
They can have their diamonds and
We'll have our pearl.

I kissed a girl!
For the first time
I kissed a girl
And I may do it again!
I kissed a girl.
I kissed a girl.

I kissed a girl her lips were sweet,
She was just like kissin' me
But yeah, I kissed a girl.
Kissed a girl won't change the world
But I'm so glad I
Kissed a girl.
I kissed a girl.
I kissed a girl!.

    no idea if this matters but....... "They can have their diamonds And we'll have our pearls" pearl = slang for clit.

    It -is- 'he's such a hairy behemoth'. riversuomorocks is right on that point.

    "and we laughed at the world they can have their diamonds and we'll have our pearls" I don't know why, but this to me is one of the cutest sounding lines of a song ever. It's one of those songs that makes you remember the good parts of a past relationship just enough to make you want to smile and die at the same time!

    "I kissed a girl, won't change the world" -a humble take on perception, cause, and effect. I'm a fag relative and I love this cute love song.

    Well it's obvious what this song means. I wish a male singer did a cover of this- "I kissed a Guy". I would PAY for that song.

Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart
In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.
