I Want You Sexually ....

We were going in to Normandy Sound, RI to record "I Love that Feeling" and an as yet unreleased Rolling Stones song "Blood Red Wine" (now on the deluxe Exile on Main St.) ...Medford's Joe Pet was trading sound with Phil Greene, the engineer.   So I went to the back of the studio and came up with this.  Jimmy Miller loved it...the band was freaked that after months of practice we would learn something IN a major studio.  I loved it...like being Mick Jagger and just writing IN the studio, with Jagger's own producer, former Medford resident Jimmy Miller.  It was a trip.   Jimmy asked if I liked what he was doing with my song I said "No.  But I can produce me any day of the week, you're Jimmy Miller, have fun!"  And Jimmy and Phil Greene went to work.  At the time I didn't like the Boney Maroney bass riff, or my friends Ava Electris,  Jo Jo Laine and Dalia Davis doing Doo Wop backing vocals, six months later I realized  how special the Miller Magic was.  My genius was to walk away and let the greatest rock and roll record producer of all time do his job.  Now one of my all-time favorite tracks.  Oh, and it's a true story of a threesome that didn't happen.   It wasn't the trick asking me what my sign was, my boyfriend was an amateur astrologer always asking people their signs.  I just put the artistic license words in the married man's mouth because when my boyfriend flipped out, clearly, nothing else was going in ///oh, never-you-mind.......ahem...

Look at that man, real slut material over there.

Think I'll go over and say hi!

Hey You!

Now don't expect letters of love

you met the one that I'm dreaming of

You can't expect a lifetime when we just met

this might be as close as you're ever gonna get

You stare and ask me what's my sign?

I say Shut UP, now put your mouth against mine

I'm gonna rip those clothes off to the floor

we're going to get it on...nothing more for..

I don't want you emotionally

I don't want you spiritually

I don't need you affectionately

I just want you...sexually!


Can we talk, I wanna buy you a beer

this is the first time I've ever seen you here

I don't know you I just like the way you look

tomorrow I toss you like a half-read book

I don't want you emotionally

I don't need you romantically

nor do I want you spiritually

I just want you sexually

You stare then ask me what's my sign?

I say Shut Up, now put your mouth against mine

You won't be the only one

but you're good looking, call me,

my number's yell fun...


maybe maybe not perpetually

but sexually

Got a wife and kids?

Don't tell me your fxxxxng problems

I don't wanna know

You know you're pretty ffxxxxng lucky

not everyone gets to get down for the count...

sexually...
