Hi Dana Back tomorrow some time, I'm workin' my butt off,  so busy. I also done a lot of posting on others here, and I'm now exhausted. Hugs Michele Hi Michele,
It's really great to see someone so excited about their work, I love that. In regards to the song, if you have to explain what your song is about then you are not effectively communicating with your listening audience.
If you are not communicating clearly, then you are creating confusion and distracting from your song, which of course defeats the whole idea of creating one in the first place.
Even if you were to change your bridge to explain what the "Hook" is, it's already too late because the bridge is near the end of the song.
No doubt this could be a fun song for "Songwriters" familiar with the word,if that's your target audience then you're home free:) One possible way to avoid this problem would be for a very famous Singer Songwriter, who is as famous for writing his songs as he is for Singing them, say Barry Manilow or Marvin Hamlisch Then, it might work better because they're "Known" for both being a Singer and Songwriter:) But even then, most Singer-Songwriters write their own "Hooks":)
Hope this helps a bit.-Dana
All the best on it:)-Dana
