"You are the fortunate one" turning into "we're not the fortunate ones" is really what changes it for me

Cyndi Lauper's version will always be the BEST! Love it! Very first tape I ever owned, and I played it on my little pink boom box! Yep, I'm old! Got 'em both for Christmas when I was in 2nd grade! šŸ˜Ž

I always thought it was about girl's getting together, going on trip, being free, shopping. I like this song especially when I am shopping after working hard at work. Like I worked hard, now it's time to do what I desire and be free.

The meaning changes completely. Cindy's version is such a beautiful depiction of girlhood. We genuinely just wanna be happy and have fun. ā¤

The original lyrics is about sex. Cindi's ersion isn't strictly about sex

The male version its about a boy not having a girl because they are sex craved.

The female version its about a girl being free. Her expressing herself. Yet still being a failure to school/society perception. Thats what I based it off from the first sentence.

The song was written by Robert Hazard. Hazard gladly turned it over to Lauper, but was entitled to royalties and later said that he literally made a living off of it. He was a rock star in his own right, as the front man of Robert Hazard and Heroes, a neo-punk band from Philadelphia that enjoyed huge underground success. Sadly, Hazard passed away in 2008 after battling pancreatic cancer.

Fun fact: Lauper also had another big hit, ā€œTime After Time,ā€ that was written and arranged by another Philly rock act, The Hooters. Rob Hyman and Eric Bazilian originally wrote the song for their band, but eventually gave Lauper recording rights, and even sang background vocals for her on it. The song is still on The Hootersā€™ concert playlist to this day.

Girls, just want to have lunch.
Weird Al's version reigns supreme.

Personally I see the male version as a guy who has been in so many relationships or just interactions with a girl messing with his feelings/playing games with him. And heā€™s just trying to feel important because in the later part of that version his mother said that heā€™s still number one showing his family still cares about him. I see it as a menā€™s mental support song than anything misogynistic

Very subtle changes created a different story. Having the conversation with the mother first, then the father gives the mother authority and switching from the father being 'fortunate' (edit: I thought it said 'unfortunate' at first šŸ˜¬) to the singer and mother being unfortunate (meaning they as women are limited in certain ways) makes it more about living fully rather than just messing around. It does help so much that the singer is femal

His sounded like his family wanted him to settle down, but the girls he was with were on a hot girl summer. šŸ˜‚

The male version sounds like someone just got their heart broken and needs to vent and searches for validation.

Thought she was gonna sing the original male version so we could hear the difference

Edit: so I got curious & found the original lyrics. It doesnā€™t really read as misogynistic to me, but maybe Iā€™m not good at reading into the deeper meaning of lyrics

When I read:
ā€œSome guys take a beautiful girl
They try to hide her away from the rest of the world
All my girls have got to walk in the sun
'Cause girls just wanna have fun
Yeah, girls just wanna have funā€
It read more to me like the singer understands women are seen as possessions to men but recognizes they just wanna have a good time like anyone else

ā€œI know your love for him
Is deep as day is long
I know you'd never be the
Thing to do him wrong
But when I knock on the door
I'm close now, you could come
It really wasn't important
'Cause girls just wanna have fun
Yeah, girls just wanna have funā€

Now this could be interpreted as sexual, with ā€˜Iā€™m close now, you could comeā€™ but it sounds like maybe he had a one night with a girl and wanted to go deeper into a relationship, as suggested when he sings he knows how deep a womanā€™s love can be ā€˜as day is longā€™, but he also understands their encounter wasnā€™t important to her cause itā€™s just for fun. This could also loop back to the beginning when he says ā€œoh mother dear, youā€™re still my number oneā€ cause he hasnā€™t yet found his number one girl yet (a girl ready to settle).

Sorry for long edit šŸ™

The original one is actually saying that girls play with men.
