Babys Got A Brand New Hairdo

Elvis Costello

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse 1] Baby’s got a brand new hairdo but doesn’t she look so nice? She said everything that she cares to she’s saying it not once but twice She said it doesn’t matter unless I say it matters      Well I don’t care about all that modern jazz The girl that used to have it and the girl I still has    She’s the girl that used to have it and the girl I still has        [Verse 2] Baby’s got a brand new hairdo and doesn’t she look so fine? She said everything that she used to Except she’s picking your heart not mine She said "it doesn’t matter unless I say it matters" The pretty girls of Beak Street sit there flattered I don’t care about all that modern jazz The girl that used to have it and girl I still has    She’s the girl that used to have it and the girl I still has [Verse 3] Baby’s got a brand new hairdo and doesn’t she look so good? She looks like Billy Boy Arnold said I wish you would I wish you would                    Baby’s got a brand new hairdo I wonder what’s left inside She used to play me for the next fool before she learned how to be snide She walks in the place and everybody scatters     I don’t care about all the modern girls The girl that I used to have and the girl I still has She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has      She’s the she’s the she’s the (yeah)                  She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has           She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has She’s the girl that I used to have and the girl I still has           She’s the she’s the she’s the               (repeat till fade)

Cette chanson évoque une jeune femme qui a changé de coiffure, et son apparence semble le prétexte d'un regard plus profond sur leur relation. Elle exprime qu'elle ne se soucie pas vraiment des jugements extérieurs, insistant sur le fait que ce qui compte, c'est ce qu'elle décide de faire valoir. Le protagoniste, par contre, semble nostalgique, se remémorant la personne qu'elle était et se demandant ce qui a réellement changé en elle. Son attitude moderne ne l'intéresse pas vraiment; il est attaché à cette "fille" qu'il a connue, révélant une sorte de conflit entre l'apparence et les sentiments profonds. Dans ce contexte, on ressent une tension entre l’évolution personnelle et la communication dans les relations, mettant en lumière une certaine méfiance et la difficulté de se connecter authentiquement avec l'autre. Cela fait écho aux dynamiques de relations modernes, où l'image peut parfois prédominer sur les émotions réelles.
