Girls Just Want to Have Fun Lyrics

[FINN]
I came home, in the middle of the night
My father says "What you gonna do with your life?"
Well daddy dear, you know you're still number one
Oh girls, they wanna have fun
Oh girls, they...

The phone rings, in the middle of the night
My mother says "When you gonna live your life right?"
Well momma dear, we're not the fortunate ones
Oh girls, they wanna have fun
Oh girls, they...

That's all they really want...
Those girls, they wanna have fun

[FINN with ARTIE and NEW DIRECTIONS BOYS]
Some boys take a beautiful girl
Oh, and they hide her away from the rest of the world
But not me, I wanna be the one in the sun
Girls, they wanna have fun
Oh girls, they...

That's all they really want...
Those girls, they wanna have fun

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
