lyrics

All lyrics are property of their owners and are strictly for educational use only!

We like to chat about the dresses we will wear tonight
We chew the fat about our tresses and the neighbor's fight
Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
Become essential things that women find so apropos

But that's a dame
We're all the same
It's just a game
They call it girl talk
Girl talk

We all meow about the ups and downs of all our friends
The who, the how, the why, we dish the dirt, it never ends
The weaker sex, the speaker sex, you mortal males behold
But though we joke, we wouldn't trade you for a ton of gold

It's all been planned
So take my hand
Please understand
The sweetest girl talk
Talks of you
