Party Girl

U2 · Other Songs - U2

I know a girl, a girl called Party, Party girl

I know she wants more than a party, Party girl

And she won't tell me her name, oh no, not me

I know a boy, a boy called Trash, Trash Can

I know he does all that he can, wham bam

And she won't tell me his name, oh no, not me

Guitar hero

When I was three, I thought the world revolved around me

I was wrong and so I sing along

And if you dance, then dance with me

I know a girl, a girl called Party, Party girl

I know she wants more than a party, Party girl

I know a boy, a boy called Trampoline

You know what I mean

I think I know what he wants, I think I know what he wants

I think I know what you want, I think I know what you want

I think I know what you want, I think I know what you want

I think I know what he wants
