They leave their happy homes When they're just too young to know They put their trust in strangers 'Cause they got nowhere to go But it's a cold hard world You can feel so alone when nobody cares And that's how girls get in trouble
They wear their clothes too tight They want a downtown fling They look for rich old men They drink a Singapore sling He comes on way too fast He's got a wife and kids A brief tete-a-tete And that's how girls get in trouble
You can't keep 'em at home anymore They run out of the kitchen and into the streets They finish school and they just get bored They won't wait for us, it's much too late for us Come on girls!
They leave their happy homes They come alive at night They learn to love the darkness 'Cause they can see no light, no light, no light But it's a cold hard world You can feel so alone when nobody cares And that's how grils get in trouble
You know they live too fast and they die too young They're loose, they're loose That's how girls get in trouble
