Lyrics
?Girls Pay Plastic?
Capers Simmons
VERSE I
Girls don?t think about what comes after
Girls just think about now
Boys don?t think about why they get it
Boys just think about how
Girls think boys don?t think very much about
Anything that really counts
Boys think girls think way too often
And they?re too hard to figure out
PRECHORUS I
Girls don?t, guys do, guess it all comes down to how you gonna spend your time.
Guys won?t, girls will when it comes to dollar bills, are you gonna save one dime?
CHORUS
Girls are gonna pay plastic, honey
Boys would rather pay cash
Girls are gonna take all your money
Boys would rather you ask
VERSE II
Boys don?t think about what they?re gonna say, unless
Girls are in the room
Girls don?t think about what to play unless
Boys wanna play it, too
Boys think girls talk way too much without
Ever saying anything
Girls think boys don?t think at all
So they do all the talking
~ PRECHORUS I ~ CHORUS ~
PRECHORUS II
Girls cry, boys lie about where they were all last night, girls tell boys to be men,
Girls spend, boys lend, try to make it up to them, start the cycle over again.
CHORUS II
Girls are gonna wear diamonds, baby
Boys are gonna buy jeans
Girls are gonna put out for you, maybe
Boys aren?t gonna say ?please?.
~ CHORUS I ~
