You Love It When I Talk Wordy
(c) 2002 by Bill Draper


v1
AAA... Come on in the living room
Its been such a long day
Sit down there on the couch
Now just rest there...Stay!
Til I get you a cool drink
Put your feet up for awhile
I'll be right back now honey
You just hold that smile

Chorus
oo you so big and strong
oo you so handsome and sturdy
And I just know,I just know
You love it when I talk wordy!

v2
Now here I am back again baby
That tie of yours looks so tight
Lets loosen up a bit sugar
Just relax now thats alright
Now isn't that better honey
Lets undo a few those buttons
And let my little fingers sooth
Where the collars been cuttin'

Chorus
oo you so big and strong
oo you so handsome and sturdy
And I just know,I just know
You love it when I talk wordy!

v3
Let's pull out that shirt-tail
Here I'll loosen your belt
Aaa come on now honey
Ain't this the best you felt
Since all day at the office
Tied up on the phone
Now its my turn to tie
A few silky knots of my own

Chorus
oo you so big and strong
oo you so handsome and sturdy
And I just know,I just know
You love it when I talk wordy!

Good ideas, I like it.

It's real descriptive, and it's got a cool "tone" to it, but I expected just a little more from the hook.

I thought you'd go in the direction of: many sophisticated, multi-syllabled words turn me on...where you're saying something like, "darling, your epidermal charm and your optical disarm..." etc.

Anyway, there's a lot there that I like.


You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash

Hi Bill,
Well, i just thought i'd ask something. Your chorus does seem to be quite disjoint from the verses, doesn't it? I mean, they seem to belong to different songs altogether. Or maybe that's the way you intended it? I'm saying this because the verses deal with actions alone, no words spoken, and then the chorus talks about being "wordy"....You might want to look into this, huh? But the poetry's fine, otherwise...
C ya,
Pramod

LOL, Bill. This is cute as can be. You could go two different ways with this. Mike had a good suggestion with the big words , and Pramod brought up a good point. You could change wordy to something like flirty. If you wanted to go in that direction. Either would work.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the nice comments. I know what you mean...I say wordy,thats what its gotta be....so I think I will drop that title and think of something that fits the existing verses better.

Thanks again for the encouraging words.

Thanks Jean.

Greetings:
Overall I loved it. Some basic changes have already been brought up, so I won't recover them. I do have a couple things I would like to suggest, if I may.
CURRENT Verse 1, line 4
"Now just rest there...Stay!"
SUGGESTED V1 L4
"Now just let your mind stray"
However, if you're going for a more "forcefully willed woman" talking to this man of hers, home after a long days work (which seems indicated by the line towards the end of the song about tieing a few silky knots), the idea JeanB came up with about talking "flirty", would fit right in with just a slight overhaul of the lyrics in the verses being bent towards innuendo and double entendre supporting that theme.

Hi David,

Thanks for that nice critique and the compliments. Thats a good analysis for sure.
Good suggestion on the `Stay' line...that is a command for sure and establishes a certain tone I had not previously noticed. Thanks for drawing my attention to that.

This gives me great encouragement to work a little more on this and then maybe get some music for it.

Cheers [Linked Image]

Hi Bill, I stopped by to second Mike's idea about substituting some really big words in there to go along with that terrific hook! Idamarie

Hi Idamarie and debdeb

I thought of the title first. The text of the song is the `wordy' and is meant to be teasing. She is talking to him the whole time...the text of the verses. You like the hook Ida, and debdeb thinks the text is sexy...why wouldn't it work with a sexy female singing voice ?

Thanks for posting Ida and debdeb and all!

"Sit down there on the couch
Now just rest there...Stay!"

Have you considered using the word 'dear' instead of "there" again in the second line? Just an idea :-)
