CAUTION, GRAPHIC CONTENT.
Shambles,
It's pretty rough speaking for a woman, we tend to be more of suckers than that, but there was only one place that jarred me, and that was the line about the dinky toy and playing with it.
It struck me as false because 1. in my experience, size matters to you guys a whole lot more than us. Maybe there is some really basic thing about external/internal dichotomy that is related to one's organs, do you think? Think about it. Size is going to feel more important to the inserter. In lovemaking, each sex changes size, and what happens if things are working, is you get a match. I'm sorry if I'm getting too graphic here, but I was just realizing what some of the roots of each side's performance fears are. (Ours have more to do with lubrication).
And, 2. If he's as bad as she says, she's probably grateful when he beats off. Anyway, he probably hides that he's doing it, too.
In regards to the unwilling guy at the altar, you asked, why is she marrying him, and that question didn't even occur to me. I assumed he hadn't told HER what he was saying in the song, 'cause guys like that don't. I assumed he'd said to her the things one is supposed to and now he felt trapped.
Is it a blues?
I'll post a blues that's similar in tone in a bit (It's on the other computer, and I have to go and retrieve it) called "I Want My Money Back" by Saffire. I'll put it on a separate thread because this one is getting long.
And is anyone unhappy about our talking about individual songs in this thread? Should we start a separate thread?
Blessings,
Barbara
