The song "Girl U Want" by Eleventyseven is actually a cover of the original song by Devo. The lyrics describe a mysterious and alluring girl who seems to captivate the narrator. The girl is portrayed as being out of reach, singing from somewhere unseen and sitting in the top of a green tree. The lyrics suggest that this girl emits an undefined love that envelops those around her like a mist. The narrator acknowledges that she is the girl they desire, the girl they want. Her presence is so strong that her calling can be heard everywhere the narrator turns. However, there seems to be a struggle within the narrator. They feel a strong attraction towards this girl but also admit that the words get stuck on the tip of their tongue, implying hesitation or difficulty expressing their feelings. Despite this, the narrator knows deep down that she is the real thing, the girl they want, and acknowledges that they have always known it. The chorus repeats the sentiment that she is just the girl they want, emphasizing the intensity of the desire for her. The bridge of the song expresses the overwhelming effect she has on the narrator, with their mouth watering and mind spinning in her presence. In the end, the lyrics invite acceptance of the situation, suggesting that they should admit it's all over because she is the girl they want. The song concludes with a repetition of the earlier verses, highlighting the enigmatic nature of the girl and the strong attraction she holds.
