Girls On Film Lyrics

See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out are so bright
Then walk right out to the four line track
There's a camera rolling on her back
On her back
And I sense a rhythm humming in a frenzy
All the way down her spine

Girls on film, girls on film
Girls on film, girls on film

Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
And miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air
'Cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair
By the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here
As she goes under again

Girls on film (two minutes later)
Girls on film
Girls on film (got your picture)
Girls on film

Wider, baby, smile and you've just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night
I'm touching close, I'm holding bright
Holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper
Take me up 'til I'm shooting a star

Girls on film (she's more than a lady)
Girls on film
Girls on film (two minutes later)
Girls on film
Girls on film (see you together)
Girls on film
Girls on film (see you later)
Girls on film

What is the Meaning of Girls On Film?

Dive into the glitz and glamor of the modeling industry with this catchy tune. The lyrics depict the hustle and bustle, as well as the darker side of this seemingly glamorous world. From catwalks to camera flashes, models are portrayed in a constant state of performance. However, there's also an undercurrent of exploitation and objectification, with references to 'pulling dolly by the hair' and 'shudders in a whisper'. The repetitive chorus, "Girls on film", seems to underscore their commodification. Yet, amidst all this, there's a sense of resilience and survival - they're not just 'more than a lady', but individuals navigating a complex industry.
