Girls Talk
Unveiling Secrets: The Power of Girls Talk in Linda Ronstadt's Song
Lyrics
There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder
Some truths cannot be hidden with superficial adornments like lipstick and powder.
Thought I heard you mention my name can't you talk any louder
Suspicions arise as the speaker thinks they heard someone mentioning their name, wishing for clearer communication.
Don't come any closer
Warning someone not to come closer, maintaining a distance.
Don't come any nearer
Reiteration of the warning not to come nearer, emphasizing the need for distance.
My vision of you can't come any clearer
The speaker's perception of the person is becoming more distinct and clear.
Oh I just wanna hear girls talk
Expressing a desire to hear what women gossip about.
Got a loaded imagination being fired by girls talk
The speaker's imagination is influenced by rumors and discussions among women.
It's a more or less situation inspired by girls talk
Describing a situation shaped by the conversations and gossip of women.
But I can't say the words you want to hear
The speaker is unable to express the words the other person wants to hear.
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear right here and now
Suggesting a need to improvise or adapt to the situation in the present moment.

And they wanna know how girls talk
Highlighting the curiosity about what women talk about.
And they say it's not allowed girls talk
Stating that there are restrictions on what women are allowed to talk about.
If they say that it's so don't they think that I know by now
Questioning the logic behind such restrictions, given the speaker's awareness.
That the word up on everyone's lips stick that you're dedicated
Noting that the word on everyone's lips is a commitment, possibly indicating a relationship.
You may not be an old fashioned girl but you're gonna get dated
Suggesting that even if not traditional, the speaker's partner may become outdated.
Was it really murder were you just pretending
Raising the question of whether something serious happened or if it was just an act.
Lately I have heard you are the living end
