In the Warm Room Lyrics

In the warm room
Her perfume reaches you.
Eventually you'll fall for her.
Down you'll go
To where the mellow wallows.

In the warm room
She'll touch you with your Mamma's hand.
You'll long to kiss those red lips,
But when you do
It'll feel like kicking a habit.

[Chorus]
She'll tell you that she'll stay,
So you'd better barricade the way out.
She'll tell you she's true.
She'll tell you she loves you.
She's waiting in that warm room.

In the warm room
She prepares to go to bed.
She'll let you watch her undress,
Go places where
Your fingers long to linger.

In the warm room
You'll fall into her like a pillow.
Her thighs are soft as marshmallows.
Say hello
To the soft musk of her hollows.

[Chorus]

In the warm room.

She's waiting in that warm room.

The Siren’s Song! … Odysseus tied to the mast must surely have heard such sweet singing! …

Kate must be singing about a prostitute, offering the warmth of a female touch like earliest memories of being held by mother. There are plenty of references to sexual enticement such as strong perfume, red lipstick. But then there are clues to an ulterior motive such as you'll feel like kicking a habit and "She'll tell you that she'll stay,So you'd better barricade the way out" i.e. enticing you with false pretenses of her staying. Finally letting you watch her undress shows confident woman knowing what she wants!

no substitute for inspiration Kate was clearly inspired by Phoebe Snow melodically, but those rich sensual metaphors are all Bush...
