Belle & Sebastian - God Help The Girl Lyrics






There is no way I'm looking for a boyfriend
There is no way I'm looking for a scene
I need to save some dough
I'm a working girl, you know
I'll fend attention off I keep to myself

I love my room, I'm getting used to sleeping
Some nights I really like to lie awake
I hear the midnight birds
The message in their words
The dawn will touch me in a way a boy could never touch
Their promise never meant so much to me

You have been warned, I'm born to be contrary
Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
Teacher never cared for me
Preacher said a prayer for me
God help the girl, she needs all the help she can get

I sit for hours just waiting for his phone call
I'll leave the chocolate hidden in the fridge
I'll play his messages
Analyze his intonation
Please stop me there, I'm even boring myself

I think of him when I'm doing the dishes
I think of him while looking in the sink
This ain't no play on words
My love for him is absurd
If he gave me a sign I'd think about it for a week
I'd build it up and then I'd turn him down

You have been warned, I'm born to be contrary
Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
Teacher never cared for me
Preacher said a prayer for me
God help the girl, she needs all the help she can get

Belle & Sebastian God Help The Girl Comments
  1. P.... T....

    Không có cách nào tôi tìm bạn trai
    Không có cách nào tôi đang tìm kiếm một cảnh
    Tôi cần tiết kiệm một ít bột
    Tôi là một cô gái làm việc, bạn biết đấy
    Tôi sẽ bảo vệ sự chú ý của tôi
    Tôi yêu phòng của tôi, tôi đã quen với việc ngủ
    Có những đêm tôi thực sự thích nằm thao thức.
    Tôi nghe thấy tiếng chim nửa đêm
    Thông điệp trong lời nói của họ
    Bình minh sẽ chạm vào tôi theo cách mà một cậu bé không bao giờ có thể chạm vào
    Lời hứa của họ không bao giờ có ý nghĩa nhiều với tôi
    Bạn đã được cảnh báo, tôi được cảnh báo là trái ngược
    Lạc hậu ở trường, tôi viết từ phải sang trái
    Sư phụ không bao giờ quan tâm đến tôi
    Thầy giảng đã cầu nguyện cho tôi
    Chúa giúp cô gái, cô ấy cần tất cả sự giúp đỡ.
    Tôi ngồi hàng giờ chỉ chờ cuộc gọi của anh.
    Tôi sẽ để sô cô la giấu trong tủ lạnh
    Tôi sẽ chơi tin nhắn của anh ấy
    Phân tích ngữ điệu của anh ấy
    Hãy dừng tôi ở đó, tôi thậm chí nhàm chán
    Tôi nghĩ về anh ấy khi tôi đang làm các món ăn
    Tôi nghĩ về anh ấy khi nhìn vào bồn rửa
    Đây không phải là chơi chữ
    Tình yêu của tôi dành cho anh ấy thật vô lý
    Nếu anh ấy cho tôi một dấu hiệu tôi sẽ nghĩ về nó trong một tuần
    Tôi sẽ dựng nó lên và sau đó tôi sẽ từ chối anh ta
    Bạn đã được cảnh báo, tôi được cảnh báo là trái ngược
    Lạc hậu ở trường, tôi viết từ phải sang trái
    Sư phụ không bao giờ quan tâm đến tôi
    Thầy giảng đã cầu nguyện cho tôi
    Chúa giúp cô gái, cô ấy cần tất cả sự giúp đỡ.

    [Verse 1]
    There is no way I'm looking for a boyfriend
    There is no way I'm looking for a scene

    I'll fend attention off, I keep to myself

    [Verse 2]
    I love my room, I'm getting used to sleeping
    Some nights I really like to lie awake
    I hear the midnight birds

    The dawn will touch me in a way a boy could never touch
    Their promise never meant so much to me

    [Chorus]
    You have been warned, I'm born to be contrary
    Backward at school, I wrote from right to left

    I'll eat the chocolate hidden in the fridge
    I'll play his messages

    Please stop me there, I'm even boring myself

    [Verse 4]
    I think of him when I'm doing the dishes
    I think of him while looking in the sink

    Damn. Like every comment in the last year is AoS related. Don't blame though. One of those rare perfect soundtrack choices. Show needs more credit

    P.S. Simmons went from adorable to hot in S2. Just saying. Must've been the hair

    R.... 0....

    true tho short was great on here

    R.... 0....

    I know its been years lol but I just started watching the show, and that whole scene with this song was perfect. (I'd never heard the song before that episode, so I'm also glad for the introductuon because it easily became a favorite)

  62. A.... H....

    I suppose the 'original' counterpart to this has two women singing, yet I don't really like that version and prefer this one much more. is this a cover by someone, can I get more details on it? I'd like to play it on a loop but YouTube doesn't allow it and I can't find it on other various music playing applications. Can someone help?

    A.... H....

    Alex Hoffman this is not a cover! is the original version

    A.... H....

    @Yesenia Sibaja Okay, but where can I find the version with just one woman singing? This isn't an argument.

  63. �.... ....

  87. D.... C....

    I'm a first year at a British university, in halls. When I first came to halls, there was this one girl who, it was clear, was troubled. A lovely person for sure, but skittish, shy, and she had this wild-eyed, terrified demeanour about her. It turns out that she was a self-harmer. Me and a few others would, a few times, stay up until the sun began to rise making sure that she was okay, calling for ambulances, and so on. It was, and no disrespect to this poor girl, a horrible time for us all, our studies suffered and it really hit us hard. We all wanted to help her as best we could, but as it went on it became clear that nothing we could do was going to help. 

    In the end, with that girl, we had to distance ourselves, and we contacted the girl's parents when it became clear that the uni's hands were tied and they weren't going to. She's okay now, it seems, and we bump into her occasionally. 

    But at the tail-end of it all, I was on the phone to my mother, who is a devout Christian, where I'm agnostic, and she promised to say a prayer for this girl at her service this weekend, and get the whole congregation to pray for her. And this song, from nowhere, came into my head. And now I can't listen to this song without crying my eyes out. Because in quiet moments, when faced with how little there is that we could reasonably do, I just think to myself... God help this girl. She needs all the help she can get.

  88. e.... ....

    I said to a friend that it was not unlike "What do you want" by Adam Faith.He said that he'd never heard anything by Adam Faith.I am Eddie who works in the bookshop called "Voltaire and Rousseau" which was used as a location in this film.

  89. A.... ....

    Oh, Simmons you are so pretty :3

  90. D.... G....

    This song only caught my attention when it was featured in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D :)

  91. T.... Y....

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Seasson 2 Episode 3 :D

  92. i.... p....
