Take Me Lyrics
I fancied you for a very long time
You finally got around to makin' your move
But when you picked me up, you looked so fairy
I wish we could dispense with the preliminaries
Oh, so much for subtlety
I can't wait for you to get your hands on me
Oh, take me, take me, please
Oh, take me, take me
Don't leave me at the door with a good night kiss
It's guys like you can give a girl a complex
I've never been so in love before
I'm not playin' hard to get, that's for sure
Oh, so much formality
I can't wait for you to put your hands on me
Oh, take me, take me, please
Oh, take me, why don't you take me?
Oh, take me, come on, boy
Oh, take me, take me
Oh, don't let me scare you away
It's not like me to come on strong
But love like this just can't be wrong
So I'm gonna make it easy
Oh, take me, take me
Oh, take me, take me
Oh, oh, take me, take me
Oh, take me, come on, take me
It's the holdin' back makes me want you more
I'm not playin' hard to get
Oh, why don't you take me, boy?
Oh, oh, take me, come on, take me
Oh, take me, why don't you take me?
Oh, take me, take me
You finally got around to makin' your move
But when you picked me up, you looked so fairy
I wish we could dispense with the preliminaries
Oh, so much for subtlety
I can't wait for you to get your hands on me
Oh, take me, take me
It's guys like you can give a girl a complex
I've never been so in love before
I'm not playin' hard to get, that's for sure
Oh, so much formality
I can't wait for you to put your hands on me
Oh, take me, why don't you take me?
Oh, take me, come on, boy
Oh, take me, take me
It's not like me to come on strong
But love like this just can't be wrong
So I'm gonna make it easy
Oh, take me, take me
Oh, oh, take me, take me
Oh, take me, come on, take me
I'm not playin' hard to get
Oh, why don't you take me, boy?
Oh, oh, take me, come on, take me
Oh, take me, why don't you take me?
Oh, take me, take me

Musically, I like this one- it's a catchy, upbeat '80s pop ditty. Morally- well maybe I am rather conservative on this score, many may disagree with me.
Interestingly, is the reversal of the usual cliched roles in this song- the girl fancies the guy rotten, and wonders why he hasn't gone straight for her, presumably sexually, instead of taking it slow like he is. Her feelings for him being so strong she's desperate to "take it all the way". Proof that not all us men are desperate to jump into bed with a woman at the soonest possible instance? Or is he just trying "too hard" not to hurt her feelings? One wonders.
