Been trying to get to heaven,
since she was eleven.
The girl with yellow hair who said she never really wanted to
go to school, go to school.
The girl with yellow hair,
who said she never really wanted to
go to school, go to school…
break the rules.

Been trying to get to heaven
(trying to get to heaven)
since she was eleven
(since she was eleven)
the girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed
and never wanted to go to work
go to work.
The girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed
and never needed to go to church
go to church,
wont go to church.

She’s the one who can save my soul,
Oh she can destroy it
she’s the girl who can help the world, but she just ignores it.

Been trying to get to heaven,
(Trying to get to heaven)
since she was eleven.
(Since she was eleven)

Been trying to get to heaven,
(trying to get to heaven)
since she was eleven.
(since she was eleven)

The girl with yellow hair who said
she never really wanted to
go to school, go to school.
The girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed
and never wanted to go to work
go to the church.

The girl with yellow hair, who said she never really wanted to get out of bed and get dressed to go to school.

    It doesn't really mean anything much. It's a generic pop song. The kid-friendly lyrics (the whole rebellious kid, yay! theme) and the fact she played this song on a kid's show show it was meant to be her first single and make her a successful artist as radio stations would be able to play it. That plan pretty much failed. I hate this song, it's the worst from the album.
