GIRLS AND BOYS IN SCHOOL As recorded by the Neon Trees (From the 2010 Album HABITS) [Verse 1] Play me down my lover Like we’re undercover Like we’re in our freshmen year Like all the girls and boys in school Our anticipation And our bad behaving It’s like we learned our lesson But conveniently forgot the rules [Chorus] Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? [Verse 2] I don’t want your lover Like my younger brother He’s patronized another But I think it’s serious this time I don’t want you fading Acting like you hate me It’s just like all your paper cuts That cut you in the coldest spots [Chorus] Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? [Bridge] Fuck all the rest And forget the rules Like all the girls and boys in my school Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? I said to this end "don’t hurt your best friend" (Keep playing along again!) I said to this end "don’t hurt your best friend" (Keep playing along again!) I said to this end "don’t hurt your best friend" (Keep playing along again!) I said to this end "don’t hurt your best friend" (Keep playing along again!) [Interlude] [Chorus] Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? [Outro] Fuck all the rest And forget the rules Like all the girls and boys in my school Questions for questions I’ve got a question Would you ever dance with me like that? Would you ever would you ever? Would you ever would you ever? Keep playing along again

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque les émotions et les dynamiques des relations adolescentes, où le flirt et les interrogations sur l'amour sont omniprésents. On y ressent un mélange d'innocence et de désespoir, où le narrateur se demande si l'autre personne serait prête à danser avec lui, comme si tout n’était que jeu et légèreté. Cela reflète l'excitation des premières années de lycée, où les règles de la vie semblent souvent ignorées ou oubliées. Le morceau capture cette période de transition où l'on apprend sur soi-même et sur les autres, malgré les maladresses et les non-dits. Les questions et les doutes animent l’ensemble, renforçant l’idée que même dans la confusion des jeunes années, un lien sincère peut se former.
