Dated song lyrics

Just turned radio on to be greeted with Jump up and down wave your knickers in the air St cecilia

It was would be a lot more romantic if he drove all night, made her a cup of tea in the morning 😁
I'd be far more likely to be amenable, than being woken up in the middle of the night by someone creeping into my room!

I think he would probably make the tea in morning.

Cyndi Lauper also sang this song.

It doesn’t have to be a man who drove all night, crept into your room and made love to you.

Ladies drive too.

I wanna be Bobby's girl
That's the most important thing to me

No, love, it's not the most important thing
Use your noddle, be more ambitious!!

I had to listen to my cousin sing this at her wedding as her husband was called Robert[Bobby]. She was 17 and pregnant their parents made them marry. I was a bridesmaid and somehow knew it would never last. They divorced about 2 years later. Both remarried but she never had any more children. He went on to have more.
She definitely had not used her noddle.

I must say I sang along with it in my teens.
I only went out with one Robert (he was never a Bobby) but, sadly, it was not to last 😥

‘My ding-a-ling’ by Chuck Berry.

We watched him in concert the other month on an old recording the song was even more suggestive when he sang it and got audience participation with them singing "My Ding a Ling."I believe he eventually got into trouble for being too near the knuckle.

I suppose that was why" Je''taime "was banned by all the radio stations. They interpreted it even in the late 60s as a step too far. But most of us can remember it and sing along and the tune was lovely, it can still make me swallow when Jane Birkin died lat weak.
My mother pointed out the inappropriateness of "I'll be watching you", it had been played at a funeral she had attended and she said it was about haunting not Christian values.

Bella23, You mention 'I'll be watching you'.

Do you mean 'Every breath you take' by The Police? If so it is even worse than about haunting, and even more inappropriate for a funeral as its about stalking ...........

I don't think my mother had ever heard about stalking when she attended the funeral, but at least she listened to the words.
She came away from another after hearing Frank Sinatra singing "My Way", her comment was that the diseased always was a dominant old b....they chose well.

My ex boyfriend suggested doing that, thinking it would be sexy, whereas I thought it would be terrifying to hear someone creeping up the stairs. I would have locked the bedroom door and dialled 999.

Thanks for that FannyCornforth, I first heard the story years ago so pleased to know it's true. Also hope Lucy enjoyed knowing she was imortilised in song.

I've seen an interview in which Sting himself called it "The Stalker Song"

Every breath you take was written by Sting about his marriage breakup. He admits that the lyrics are a bit stalkerish.

Thanks Lathyrus!
I had an inkling that it was totally innocent.
There is quite a bit of misunderstanding on this thread

Then when you sing - not ding😬

You all circle the girl in the ring. The when you ding “Show me your motion “ She does a dance with a motion she’s made up and then you all circle singing and copying the dance.

It’s fun!

Nursery rhyme type song like The farmers in his den.

It’s a traditional song from the Caribbean.

I prefer to believe the truth DolphinDaisy!

Everyone thought Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was about LSD but John Lennon insisted the title came from his son Julian who had a friend called Lucy. Julian came home from school one day with a painting he'd done, when John asked him what it was he replied " Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds." People can decide for themselves which version they believe.
