Willow ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The night is young and full of possibilities
Well come on and let yourself be free
My love for you, so long I've been savin'
Tonight was made for you and me
You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ding-dong-ding)
Edit: I mean, it's just about doing it, nothing crazy, but as a kid I had no clue, is the point.
tommyrot, is that the "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates; you've got a brand new key" song? I love that song, and have since I was little.
"Ring My Bell" was featured prominently at my prom. It might have even been the official prom theme.

Cindy's a Melanie fan, eh?
Sounds like back door love, to me.
He's equal opportunity:
Uh, ah-oh-oh! I went downtown,
I saw Miss Brown;
She had brown sugar
All over her booga-wooga.
I think I might join the fun,
But I had to hit and run.
I am still bitter about the Prom Committee political brou-ha-ha that led to my prom song NOT being "Let's Chill" by Guy. Seriously.
"I'm glad I'm a man, and so is Lola."
There's also, "Girls will be boys and boys will be girls / It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola."
Which you could interpret two ways too, I suppose - but then when you look at the song as a whole I think the conclusion is inescapable.
Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
and
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Holly Woodlawn, about whom "Walk on the Wild Side" was written, is the guest of honor at an event we're holding at my theatre in September. I'm kinda psyched to meet her.
What did you think it was about before? Or did you just never think about it? (I've missed song lyric double-entendres by not thinking about the lyrics.)
Never thought about it.

Yep.
I just listened to it now (it's on my iPod). Fun.
