Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Lyrics
I come home in the morning light
My mother says, "When you gonna live your life right?"
Oh, mother dear, we're not the fortunate ones
And girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
[Verse 2]
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells, "What you gonna do with your life?"
Oh, daddy dear, you know you're still number one
And girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have
[Chorus]
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
[Post-Chorus]
Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun
Girls, they wanna have
[Verse 3]
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I wanna be the one to walk in the sun
Oh, girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
[Post-Chorus]
Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun
Girls, they wanna have
[Bridge]
They just want, they just want
They just want, they just want
[Chorus]
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
[Post-Chorus]
Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun
Girls, they wanna have
When the working, when the working
When the working day is done (Oh, girls)
Oh, when the working day is done
Oh, girls, they wanna to have fun
Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun
Girls, they wanna have
Girls, they wanna, wanna have fun
Girls, they wanna have

At the 50th Grammy Awards, I presented an award with Cyndi Lauper. We were hanging outbackstage, talking about the Stones and other music—we seemed to have similar taste. And then shelooked at me and said, “Well, don’t be scared of anything. People waste their lives being scared. Lasso the moon. But don’t do it because someone tells you it’s the right idea.” I got what she was saying. It was exactly what I was trying to do with Breakout. And I thought Cyndi Lauper was so cool that I added a cover of “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” to the album.
