The 1975 - Girls

[whirlsapart]

Mattys accent will always be the cutest thing

[GrubWarp]

summer 2013 was the peak of my existence thank you 1975

[megadavis]

Love the line....she can't be what you need if she's seventeen. After the iTunes festival, spanning worldwide on the internet, this band is going sky high. It's gonna freak them out. From zero to number one in a heartbeat. Good luck lads, 10 years of hard work just paid off. Well done. Keep doing what your doing.

[jordankendall]

lifes to short to drink crappy coffee and cry over boys who dont care- matt healy
ughhh thank you 1975

[MyEmoDiaries]

6 years later, I still am obsessed with this song!

[sydneybriana]

high school vibes all over, what a fresh breath of air.

[BradCheshter]

As an American, I can't sing this without unconsciously (and very poorly) imitating Matt Healy's accent.

[crease]

he introduced me to this band, i remember the days he always used to tell me to listen to the 1975's songs. this song is used to an au he suggested me to read. i love this song sm, i love him. i love listening to this song because it reminds me of june that i first met him. i miss you so damn much...

[ImaWarrior]

the 1975 is a really good band- I just can't tell what matty is saying half the time but oh well, still great!

[elizabeth-dukf]

I USED TO THINK THE LYRICS WERE "where's the fun and do you want your toast?" INSTEAD OF WHERE'S THE FUN IN DOING WHAT YOU'RE TOLD IM LAUGHING

[Doodahdoodles]

SO pleased with how far they've come. 5 years ago when I first met them supporting One Night Only loads on tour, hardly anyone was bothered to go have a picture or even speak to the lads. No one batted an eyelid at them, and they had worked so hard to get noticed. And now, girls run screaming after them, they're huge all over the world and are doing so well. Well done lads, you've earnt it.

[tahliagrant]

that guitar rift and Mattys voice are just to die for

[georgia]

if the 1975 could play in the background of my life i'd be very happy 

[rossmurrayfam]

my neighbour was jamming to this song at 2 in morning what a legend

[symon_gt]

Still listening to this wonderful song!! 2019!

[TheMGamerz]

No matter how hard I try I end up singing in Matt Healy's accent XD

[jenniferkahulugan]

[TheChloeblackburn]

Best song on the album, just so god damn good.

"Girls"

Bite your face to spite your nose
17 and a half years old
Worrying about my brother finding out
What's the fun in doing what you're told?

I said, "No!"
"Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you"
"I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
Give me a night I'll make you"
"I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age, but girl I'm not your savior."
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

A pair of frozen hands to hold,
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold,
One moment I was tearing off your blouse,
Now you're living in my house.
What happened to just messing around?

I said, "Yo, I think you better go; I can't take you."
"You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it."
"Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

I told her from the start
Destined to be hard
I told her from the start
I'll break your heart
Destined to be hard
I'll break your heart

I said, "Yo, I think you better go; I can't take you."
"I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age, but girl I'm not your savior."
"Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

'Cause they're just girls...
Just girls, they're just girls...

I heard them on Full Frontal a while ago, the radio show hosted by half of All Time Low, and my dad recommended them to me. I think it's wonderful how a range of artists are promoting new and exciting music and letting them have the spotlight, who cares whether it was a punk band, a boyband or screamo people that recommended them, music is for everyone guys, not just for those obsessed with a particular genre. Get over yourselves and your musical predudices!
