Lyrics and translation
Original
I learned from my mother what she learned from her mother
Sit still, look pretty, just flow with the water
Feel the ache in my stomach, but I'll go a little longer
No, it won't kill me just to try a bit harder
But you will never know
'Cause that's just how it goes, oh
Girls will be girls
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
Sayin', "Oh, I'm fine"
And girls will be there
Hold your hand when you can't get out of bed sometimes
Sayin', "You'll be fine"
'Cause girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
You picked me up in the middle of the night
He broke my heart for the hundredth time
You knew what to say, you've been here before
And you've seen all the pain that he would ignore
Oh, that's just how it goes (oh)
Girls will be girls
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
Sayin', "Oh, I'm fine" (oh, I'm fine)
And girls will be there
Hold your hand when you can't get out of bed sometimes
Sayin', "You'll be fine" (you'll be fine)
'Cause girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls (they will be)
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls (oh)
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls (oh)
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Girls will be girls
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
Sayin', "Oh, I'm fine"
