I have a very good friend The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend She has a personal style Some people love it others tend to go wild You hear her voice everywhere Taking the chair She's a leading lady And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going Head over heels Breaking her way Pushing through unknown jungles every day She's a girl with a taste for the world (The world is like a playing ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme if you know what I mean Her man is one I admire He's so courageous but he's constantly tired Each time that he speaks his mind She pats his head and says that's all very fine Exert that will of your own When we're alone Now we better hurry And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going Head over heels Breaking her way Pushing through unknown jungles every day She's a girl with a taste for the world (The world is like a playing ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme if you know what I mean You hear her voice everywhere Taking the chair She's a leading lady And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going Head over heels Breaking her way Pushing through unknown jungles every day She's a girl with a taste for the world (The world is like a playing ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme if you know what I mean (She's just one of those who always has to do whatever she please) And she goes Head over heels
