Listening to 'Little Wing' by Jimi Hendrix this afternoon, it occurred to me that a circus-minded girl who only ever thinks about butterflies and zebras
and moonbeams and fairy tales would Not Go Down Well At The School Gate.

Then again, DH thinks he may once have dated her.

Any more?

Not familiar with it, but often ponder that the woman described in "Where do you go to my lovely" sounds like a right silly cow.

BrokenBananaTantrum · 14/06/2011 20:45

The woman in doo a diddy diddy walking along snapping her fingers and shuffling her feet. Sounds like a weirdo to me!

nicespam · 14/06/2011 20:47

Grin nice op

the the girl that walks like a pretty flamingo sounds quite frankly odd

issynoko · 14/06/2011 20:48

BBT - that made me laugh. Ernie the fastest milkman in the west sounds like an odd ball. The brown girl in the ring who 'looks like a sugar in a plum' sounds kind of gritty.

downbutnotout · 14/06/2011 20:48

And don't get me started on "The Man with the Child in his Eyes".

snigger · 14/06/2011 20:49

God, yes, where do you go to my lovely. She'd go right in the coat cupboard at ours, with a sturdy padlock behind her.

This is just what I meant.

I mean, doo wah diddy in real life would probably lead to involuntary committment to professional care.

That person who is 'always a woman' to Billy Joel appears rather selfish. Don't think she'd be a good friend.

BrokenBananaTantrum · 14/06/2011 20:58
Grin Def have to punch the woman in "where so you go to my lovely"
alemci · 14/06/2011 20:58

what about that ghastly Maggie May who lead poor Rod away from home etc etc. He couldn't say no now could he?

snigger · 14/06/2011 21:04

My other one is Beyonce, Crazy Right Now.

Don't worry, love no-one thinks you're a badass stalker with lyrics like:

"Touch on you more and more every time, when you leave I'm begging you not to go .... tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress"

Yup, trainers and groping is the way to go. Every time.

There are a couple in " a bat out if hell"
The man in the shadows with a gun in his eye Shock
And the young man in the gutter who is starting to foam in the heat !

JasHands · 14/06/2011 21:11

De de de de de de de de de de de de de DA - my baby just cares for me? Listen love, he's a stalker - get rid.

bufforpingtonchick · 14/06/2011 21:12

The singer of 'big girls don't cry' Sad I always feel a bit bullied when I hear that one.

BrokenBananaTantrum · 14/06/2011 21:14

DH doesn't want to meet the maneater from the hall and oats song

KingofHighVis · 14/06/2011 21:17

Sticking with Hendrix; how about Joe, who tells us that he is 'gonna shoot my baby , 'cause I caught her hanging around with another guy.'

HamburgerHelper · 14/06/2011 21:17

The stalker from (Just My) Imagination by the Miracles. "Each day from my window I watch her as she passes by/I say to myself you're such a lucky guy/...but it was JUST MY IMAGINATION." Creepy.

MumblingRagDoll · 14/06/2011 21:19

Minnie the Moocher sounds well dodgy.

She was a low down hoochy-Coocher you know.

And of course, that cowbag Jolene who knows she can take anyones man when she fancies....she sounds like a right pita.

snigger · 14/06/2011 21:20

I'm starting to have a waking nightmare about meeting the embodiment of these lyrics someday - probably at my next job interview....

ROFL at Hey Joe - not an over-reaction at all. I intend to boil DH for failing to renew the car tax timeously.

If I ever meet the woman who's been to paradise but never to me I will punch her fucking lights out Grin

KingofHighVis · 14/06/2011 21:23

Suzanne from the Leonard Cohen song - 'she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from china'. Nothing wrong with that you might say, well I wouldn't be so sure.

JasHands · 14/06/2011 21:26

Those blokes in 'You're so vain' and 'Smooth Operator' - I've been out with both of them.

Wankers.

snigger · 14/06/2011 21:26

KingofHighVis - exactly. What's wrong with a plate of mince and tatties? Poncey bitch.

Oh ys KingofHighVis that Suzanne sounds like a right poser...oooh...I've got tea and oranges from China...do partake.

What's wrong with Tetley's and a bourbon?

Hmm
