Mannish Girl

Lloyd Cole

Transposer:

Intro : I used to be content to frown But anything for money now I'd rather be a mannish kind of girl    I used to get drunk on Spanish wine Well, now I'm drunk most all the time I guess I've been to grateful for too long   So I sit around and wait And watch the grass grow green And count the cars Feeling lost alone and misunderstood So I wait, hey hey Yes I wait, hey hey Well I had a girl in London town She picked me up and spun me round I guess she was a mannish kind of girl I went away and I still don't know why Six feet under is where my bloody heart lies I'm just afraid I can't forget her now So I sit around and wait And watch the grass grow green And count the cars Feeling lost alone and misunderstood So I wait, hey hey So I wait, hey hey, hey hey I used to be too big too crawl Now I don't give a damn at all I'd rather be a mannish kind of girl Yeah I used to get drunk on that Spanish wine But now I'm drunk most all the time I guess I'm just afraid I can't forget her now And so I sit around and wait And watch the grass grow green And count the cars Feeling lost alone and misunderstood So I wait, hey hey Yeah I wait, hey hey Yes I wait, hey hey Yeah I wait, hey hey, hey hey

La chanson évoque un sentiment de désillusion et de confusion personnelle. Le narrateur se remémore une période où il se contentait de peu, mais désormais, il se sent perdu et dépendant, cherchant réconfort dans l'alcool. Il évoque une relation marquante avec une femme qui l’a bouleversé, laissant son cœur meurtri et son esprit en proie à des souvenirs difficiles à oublier. Cette lutte intérieure, entre le désir de retrouver sa liberté et la peur de l'oubli, l'amène à vivre dans l'attente, comme un spectateur de sa propre vie, comptant les jours qui passent sans vraiment avancer.
