Read About Love |
Asked my daddy when I was thirteen |
Daddy can you tell me what love really means? |
His eyes went glassy, not a word was said |
He poured another beer and his face turned red |
Asked my mother, she acted the same |
She never looked up, she seemed so ashamed |
Asked my teacher, he reached for the cane |
He said, don’t mention that subject again |
So I read about love-read it in a magazine |
Read about love-Cosmo and Seventeen |
Read about love-In the back of a Hustler, Hustler, Hustler |
So I-know what makes girls sigh |
And I-know why girls cry |
So don’t tell me I don’t understand |
What makes a woman and what makes a man |
I’ve never been to heaven but at lest |
I’ve read about love |
My big brother told me when I was fourteen |
It’s time I showed you what love really means |
Girls like kissing and romance too |
But a boy’s got to know what a man’s got to do |
He gave me a book, the cover was plain |
Written by a doctor with a German name |
It had glossy pictures, serious stuff |
I readd it seven times, then I knew it well enough |
Read about love-now I’ve got you |
Read about love-where I want you |
Read about love-got you on the test-bed, test-bed, test-bed |
So why-don't you moan and sigh |
Why-do you sit there and cry? |
I do everything I’m supposed to do |
If something’s wrong, then it must be you |
I know the ways of a woman |
I’ve read about love |
When I touch you there it’s supposed to feel nice |
That’s what it said in reader’s advice |
I’ve never been to heaven but at least |
I’ve read about love |
