Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Thank God for Girls. By Songfacts®.

This song finds Rivers Cuomo expressing gratitude for the female sex, but in a typically Weezer-ish way. He wrote on Genius: "Seemed like a big, mainstream-ish title but I knew I would be able to pull all kinds of weirdness out of it."

Cuomo penned the first two lines of the second verse in 1997, but was unable to find a home for them until this song. ("I'm so glad I got a girl to think of even though she isn't mine. I think about her all the day and all the night it's enough to know that she's alive.")

The lyric, "She says I give her sweaty palms she almost had a heart attack" was inspired by an incident when Cuomo accidentally pressed "video call" on Skype and freaked out a girl he was skype-texting with.
