She's got a face that shows that
She knows she's heard every line
Tenderly, she talks on the phone
There's a way to walk that says 'Stay away'
And a time to go around the long way
Girl in trouble is a temporary thing
(Temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary)
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
(Temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary)
There's a time when every girl learns to use her head
Tears will be saved 'til they're better spent
There's no time for her to be afraid, so instead
She takes care of business, keeps a cool head
Girl in trouble is a temporary thing
(Temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary)
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
(Temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary)
She's got a face that shows that
She know, she's heard every line
Tenderly, she talks on the phone
Girl in trouble is a temporary thing
(Temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary)
Girl in trouble is a temporary thing
