Top 20 Female Rock Songs of The 80s: “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” by: Cyndi Lauper

Cydni Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” is all about defining the standards of women! As “Your Tango” puts it “Girls don’t care who’s watching — they really do just want to have fun!”

Feminity:

• Rebellious – “My mother says “When you gonna live your life right? Oh momma dear, we’re not the fortunate ones
  And girls, they wanna have fun”
• Passionate – “When the workin’ day is done
  Oh, girls, they wanna have fun”
• Free Spirited – “Oh girls, they wanna have fun. Ho hoo girls just wanna have. That’s all they really want. Is some fun”

Masculinity

• Demanding – “My father yells “What are you gonna do with your life?”
• Dominate – “Some boys take a beautiful girl. And hide her away from the rest o’ the world”
