Lyrics
If I ask you difficult questions
Asking challenging or uncomfortable questions
If I make improper suggestions
Making inappropriate or suggestive remarks
Would you find that a risk to your health
Wondering if this would pose a risk to your well-being
Would you put me up on the bookshelf
Considering being placed aside like objects
With the books and the plants?
Comparing being stored away with books and plants
Desperate but not serious
Feeling desperate but not treating it as a serious matter
Your kisses drive me delirious
Expressing how intense and overwhelming your kisses are
If I were kind and adoring
Contemplating being kind and affectionate
How would that be?
Questioning how that behavior would be perceived
Very boring Mister Pressman
Referring to someone as boring and likely a journalist
With your penknife always asking about my sex life
Being consistently asked personal, intrusive questions
and who with and how many times?
Being questioned about sexual encounters and frequency
Desperate but not serious
Feeling desperate but not considering it a grave matter
Your kisses drive me delirious
Reiterating the overwhelming effect of kisses
All the advice seems so unkind
Not finding advice received helpful or compassionate
"If you don't stop, you will go blind!"
Quoting a cliché warning in a humorous context
They tell you it's none of their business
People claiming your personal life isn't their concern
and console you with a big kiss
Attempting to comfort with physical affection
on the lips and on the back of your neck
Describing where the comforting gestures occur
(oh heck!)
An exclamation expressing surprise or frustration
Desperate but not serious
Reiterating a sense of desperation without seriousness
Your kisses drive me delirious
Highlighting the overwhelming effect of kisses again
Desperate but not serious
Repeating the notion of desperation without gravity
Your kisses drive me delirious
Emphasizing the impact of kisses once more
