Lyrics in Progress

The first part read "rock is about sex", so this is actually the second issue on my "long-legged divinity". Although I forgot the tune I first had in mind the chorus has always come along with a melody. Which is the rule for my own stuff: I normally have a tune and a few lines of text in my mind simultaneously, i.e. for the chorus. As for the verses, they nearly always come much later.

The intonation for the chorus goes ('X' means 'stressed'):
X - X - X - X
X - X - X - X
- X - X - X - X (upbeat)
X - X - X - X (so the stress lies here on 'legged')

long-legged, slim divinity
how 'bout having sex with me
you need not give your love for free
my long-legged divinity

we were young and careless kids
prone to do what Ma forbids
we would meet right after school
we would do it by the pool

long-legged, slim divinity ...

I met her in the streets at noon
I met her in a dim saloon
I met her at the hotel bar
we did it in my hired car

long-legged, slim divinity ...

could you wear your lingery
could you do those things to me
that make me explode

long-legged, slim divinity ...


I use to criticize other songwriters when they switch the persons in a song ("we were young", "I met her" - 3rd person, "could you wear ..."). Even when it makes sense it is irritating for listeners (lyrics are normally listend to rather than read). So, why do I here what I normally would depreciate? You guess!
