Maureen

Meaning

The name Maureen is Irish/Celtic/Gaelic and is a derivative of Mary. It is pronounced Mor-Een. Maureen means "bitterness of the sea" and if often associated with the terms "dark" and "bitter" (but I'm not bitter).

The name Maureen has a number of variations: Maurine, Maurene, Moreen, Morine, Mairin, Maire, Maura and Moreena. Common nicknames are Moe (my personal favorite) and Mo.

This lens is dedicated to the Maureens of the world, famous and waiting to be discovered. The one thing I have learned while creating this lens is that Maureens are creative women. Enjoy your stay.

Sing Along with Maureen

Lyrics

I pick her up outside the station
She's telling me about her spring vacation
She's not leaving much to the imagination
She's giving me way too much information

Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry I don't mean to shout
It's just that I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen

Do you know what I mean
Do you know what I mean
Do you know what I mean

She calls me up at ten past midnight
'Cause she and some guy just had some big fight
And I say "well maybe he's just not all that bright"
She tells me it's not his brain that she likes

M-M-M-M-Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry I don't mean to shout
But really I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen

I know you think I'm just a friend
But can we please just put an end
To all the graphic imagery that you insist on feeding me
I can't accept I'm not the one
Who's getting to have all the fun
Maybe that's what friends are for
But I just can't take it any more

M-M-M-M-Maureen
You don't know what you do to me
I know you won't be true to me
The least that you can do for me
Is keep it to yourself
I'm so sorry I don't mean to shout
But really I can do without
The details of your days and nights and your thoughts and dreams
Can we keep it right
Can we keep it clean
Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen, Maureen
