You're A Dirty Girl!

Ok, that title is from an episode of Rob & Big. Classic, classic good times.

And this post was inspired by the recent offerings of Mr. Condescending. In the link is the result of a simple request: "I’d like you to email me a racy, but captivating snippet of lust in only 100 words." The results have been great so far. I wanted to try and come up with something, but I'm honestly not that creative. But then something came to my mind today...

Most everything I do in life can be brought back to music and this is no different. Today, I was listening to my headphones and I had it on a Kooks cd (that was recommended to me by Miss*H) and a lyric in there really caught my attention. That's when it hit me -- while I can't come up with anything, I do love some lyrics that vaguely refer to sexual themes.

You see, I'm not talking about hip hop and rap songs where they say straight up what's going down (with classic lines such as "You ain't gotta say too much From the look in your eyes I can tell you want to fuck").

I mean, the subtle stuff that you can find in poems is what some of my favorite artists do. I will share mine, but this post is for you -- what are some of your favorite lyrics that fall into this category? I know I am missing some and am hoping you guys can help me out. But the following are just three of my favorites.

The Kooks - Sofa Song:

Me and my girl
Are going out for some air
And I will do my best
Just to get under her dress

Taking Back Sunday - Little Devotional:

well i'm blowing smoke out of your window
and you're slipping back into your dress.
you know you were always such a lady.
i've always been impressed.
but gentlemen, they don't ask questions,
just keep quiet, pay attention
/
well i pictured you in blue
but i have to say i'm more partial to the red.
deep, dark, and devastating,
leaving no question as to where you've been.
i calm the crowd by keeping quiet,
move like a shadow up to your mattress.
gentlemen don't ask questions.
we could pay attention.

Say Anything - Alive With The Glory of Love:

When I watch you, wanna do you, right where you're standing…yeah.
Right on the foyer, on this dark day, right in plain view…oh, yeah….

Ok, so that last one isn't really subtle at all. But it is still a classic. So now, it's your turn. Give me some lyrics that can relate to this post and I will... love you forever. Or at least pimp you out. One of the two (maybe both?)

EDIT: I almost forgot. Today on facebook people were doing this thing where they went to urbandictionary.com and typed in their name and posted the results. I kid you not, here were mine:

ancient greek translation for "eternal sex-god". It is beleived that anyone that holds this name has a great level of skill and ability to perform sexual acts for long periods of time. Men posessing this name are also well endowed.

Girl 1: I wish my boyfriend was a matt
Girl 2: Oh you poor thing

If It Means A Lot To You



And hey darling
I hope you're good tonight
And I know you don't feel right when I'm leaving
Yeah I want it but no I don't need it
Tell me something sweet to get me by
'Cause I can't come back home till they're singing

La, la la la la la la

'Til everyone is singing

If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear to you
That we can make this last
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear come tomorrow
This will all be in our past
Well it might be for the best

And hey sweetie
Well I need you here tonight
And I know that you don't want to be leaving me
Yeah you want it but I can't help it
I just feel complete when you're by my side
But I know you can't come home 'til they're singing

La, la la la la la la

'Til everyone is singing

La, la la la la la la

If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear to you
That we can make this last
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear come tomorrow
This will all be in our past
Well it might be for the best

You know you can't give me what I need
And even though you mean so much to me
I can't wait through everything

Is this really happening?
I swear I'll never be happy again
And don't you dare say we can just be friends
I'm not some boy that you can sway
We knew it'd happen eventually

La, la la la la la la

Now Everybody's singing

La, la la la la la la

Doing lines

First off, I forget to mention stuff about the radio show. I went a little "harder" as in there was a little screamo thrown in, nothing too too crazy, but definitely more energy than last week. Anyways, if you still wanna listen, click here. And also, I left a reply to those who commented with some questions so feel free to leave responses. I promise it's not an attempt to up my comments, just honest Q&A.

So anyways, this is going to be short. I don't wanna overdo it as I plan on posting my first Flashback Friday when I wake up. I made it to Crestview at about nine and I was listening to some good music on my way here. It got me thinking about some of my favorite songs and I was also thinking of a short post by Lil Miss Tabs about song lyrics.

There are so many songs by now that contain some of my favorite lines ever. If you haven't noticed by now I am a Taking Back Sunday freak and pretty much every line they have ever laid down I am in love with (Example: If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar). So I feel this may turn into a series, but for now, I would just like to share three with you.

I haven't really talked much about it in my blog life, but next month will be one year since my ex-girlfriend and I officially broke up. In that time, a lot of songs have helped me deal with the rollercoaster of emotions (I was on the receiving end). But sometimes, you go through the angry stage and during those times, you need angry songs. Or maybe, just songs where you can relate. And that's when you need the "cold" lyrics.

*I am not currently depressed or "emo" about any of this, though that day may come haha, I am just in a sharing mood right now.

Bayside - "Devotion and Desire"

How could I know
that everything you say ARE LIES about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
was just the match I used to set myself on fire.

Armor for Sleep - "My Saving Grace"

I thought you were and angel, I guess you were a vulture.
Either way, spread your wings and just fly away

Death Cab for Cutie - "Tiny Vessels"

So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
and you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
