Dozen Girls was a single by The Damned, released in 1982.

After the experiment of "Lovely Money", it saw a return to slightly more familiar territory, but failed to chart. The album version released on Strawberries is slightly different from the single version, with the play-out featuring a roll call of a dozen girls replaced by the repeated line "He's alright and he don't care, he's got thermal underwear". Some pressings of the single credited 'Karloff' as a co-writer of "Dozen Girls" (most likely a reference to Boris, who Vanian is a fan of, and can be heard on the track) on the record label.

The single was also issued in Bolivia by Phillips, with "Bad Time for Bonzo" on the B-side.
