Some songs are fucked up...

So I was driving in my car yesterday and this song from my childhood came on the radio. I started singing along but for the first time ever, I listened to the lyrics. Really listened to the lyrics. All I can say is that my mom must have been traumatized when I was 5 years old and singing along with this song at the top of my lungs.

Here are the lyrics to "All I Wanna Do" by Heart with some commentary by me. A link to the mp3 for your listening pleasure:

It was a rainy night when he came into sight
Standing by the road, no umbrella, no coat
So I pulled up along side and I offered him a ride
He accepted with a smile so we drove for a while
I didn't ask him his name, this lonely boy in the rain
Fate tell me it's right, is this love at first sight
Please don't make it wrong, just stay for the night
All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will you want me too
All I wanna do is make love to you
I've got lovin' arms to hold on to

So we found this hotel, it was a place I knew well (She "knew well"?! Does that mean she does this often? Or that she is familiar with the hotel because she is a prostitute? Or because she in the hospitality industry?
We made magic that night. Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me, so many times, easily (Yikes! So many times!)
And in the morning when he woke all I left him was a note
I told him I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden we planted a tree (This is just a bad analogy)
Don't try to find me, please don't you dare
Just live in my memory, you'll always be there

So far, if I'm understanding this correctly, there is a woman who likes to pick up boys off of the street. Then she takes them to a hotel and sleeps with them. And then she just disappears from their lives. She sounds fucked up.

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All wanna do is make love to you
I've got lovin' arms to hold on to

Oh, oooh, we made love
Love like strangers
All night long
We made love

Then it happened one day, we came round the same way
You can imagine his surprise when he saw his own eyes (Hello?! Can we say "lawsuit"?! Her next hit was entitled "All I Wanna Have is Child Support." )
I said please, please understand
I'm in love with another man
And what he couldn't give me
was the one little thing that you can
WHAT?! So now I'm not sure if she was prowling around for someone to impregnate her on that rainy night because her current lover was sterile. Or did she find this sterile lover after she was impregnated by the boy? The woman is obviously psycho. It reminds me of that Glenn Close/Michael Douglas flick. The boy should have known that sex with no strings attached was too good to be true.

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Come on, say you will, you want me too

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Say you will, you want me too

All night long ...

Why everyone makes a fuss about Michael Jackson, but not about this woman, I'll never know.
