Ok, so years ago — many, many years ago, I wrote some lyrics after hearing about a guy who begged his girlfriend to sneak out the window to have sex with him, with the encouraging words “C’mon, it’ll only take a second.”
At the time it was unquestionably meant to be sung to a very twangy country-western tune but lately it’s been percolating back up as light pop. I’ve been thinking of trying podcasting so I’m gonna ask you which way you’d rather hear it.
Well it’s grunt twice, groan then come and it’s all over
Then I give your little cheek a kiss
You’re living with the worlds greatest lover
And that’s a thing nobody’d want to miss(Chorus)
So baby come into my arms
Let me show you all my charms
It only takes a minute and a half
Oh baby come to your lover boy
I know my loving brings you joy
Every time that I get through you laughWhen I get hot my nerves get all a tingle and a thrum
My loving is a gift that I can’t keep
I know I only wiggle twice before I come
But before I’m through you’re so tired out
You yawn and fall asleep(Repeat chorus)

Ok, maybe you’d prefer three choices:
1) Country
2) Pop
3) Don’t bother

It sounds like it could be a rap/hip-hop song. Or it already may be...
[Heh. Or an early Bob Dylan-style lament. Thanks, Bella. --fl]

Pop,definately.
Let us know when you get it on the site. Do we have to start calling you the "King of Pod?"

[I can play it, I can record it, I can even turn it into an mp3 or something. The real bottleneck is gonna be hosting it. More research required. --fl]

I love it!
I think pop, or maybe even something a bit indie/punk rock... sounds a bit like something from blink187 or greenday.
(Yes I know most people over the age of 13 haven't heard of them, sorry but I have nephews)
[Yeah, I keep hearing a little techno-reggae punch in the pop version. --fl]

4) The pure seduction of hearing your voice. It's a thought that gives me goosebumps.
Well that's an incentive. I'm working on it. --fl]

Great lyrics. I actually can hear it in my head. And the video WOW! I can just see it now, grainy B/W 8mm film.
Pop of course, a la James Blunt.

Oooh, the chance to hear your voice - be still my beating heart, my Flirting Friend!
Those lyrics are definitely country - no two ways about it. And this coming from someone who was raised on country and bluegrass music.
Let's see: first the body, then the voice - - - next the face? One can only hope and dream.....
