What is Beck saying in "Girl"???

[TheFly7]

Ok so the new Beck song "Girl" is great. But what the deuce is he saying in the main chorus part.

"Hey... My _____ Girl"

Someone thought it was "summer" girl but I don't think so. And I can't find anyone who lists that word, even at beck.com

She's a mystery to me...

 

[martha]

I think it's "slant-eyed" and that's why it's not in print anywhere.

 

[Calluna]

I have wondered about this too.

 

[bsp77]

It's "Sun-eyed Girl" Took me forever to figure it out, now it sounds obvious.

You realize that he is a serial killer in the song.

 

[martha]

That makes sense. At first I thought it was sunlight girl.

 

[UnforgettableLemon]

I've thought both sonar and summer.

 

[cass]

I was wondering the same thing myself, I suppose a lot of people are
thanks for solving the mystery. I like the film clip, it reminds me of old MAD magazines.

 

[~LadyLemon~]

I've also wondered about the lyrics here...

 

[U2DMfan]

the next time this happens just put your TV on mute and let the captions tell you exactly what he is saying.

I do it all the time.

 

[elevation2u]

iv'e read "sun-eyed" on lyric sites, then again ive caught plenty of mistakes on u2 lyrics on them

 

[Zoomerang96]

i always thought it was summer, but then i remembered this is beck and not aerosmith.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

I thought it was "Southern".

Anywho, I've not read the lyrics to this song...it deals with a serial killer?

Well considering the album is titled 'Guero' and it has a whole heap of Spanish lyrics throughout, I thought it was something in Spanish... sonaye, sonnet, sunni... I dunno? Sun eyed seems stupid to omit from the lyrics...

 

[SkeeK]

when the album leaked, the song was called 'summer girl' so I thought it was summer and didn't give it further thought.

whatever ponce labled the tracks could have been completely faulty, though.

Top tune, whatever he is saying.
