Conscience
Sweet Deception: James Darren's Seductive Symphony of Love and Heartbreak
Lyrics
I got a date tonight with such a sweet little innocent thing
I have a date tonight with a sweet and innocent person.
I'll sweep 'er off her feet before she knows what's a-happening
I plan to charm her before she realizes what's happening.
I'm gonna hand her (ooh) my "sweet-talkin'" line
I will use my charming words on her.
I know it kills her (shriek!) every time
I am aware that my charm affects her emotionally.
She's gonna love me from the start
She will love me right from the beginning.
And then I'm gonna break her heart
Despite her initial love, I intend to break her heart later.
'Cause if you're not a gentleman, you're gonna hear from me
If you're not a gentleman, you will face consequences from me.
Oh, yes I will
Expressing determination to take action.
Yes, I will
Reiterating the commitment to taking action.
Oh, yes I will, yes I will, yes I will!
Emphasizing the determination to take action multiple times.
I'm just a big bad wolf, I know tonight I'll be looking' so good
Describing oneself as a confident and attractive person.
She'll be a helpless child just like a-Little Red Riding' Hood
Comparing the situation to "Little Red Riding Hood," suggesting the other person is vulnerable.
I'm gonna charm her (mmm!) right into a trance
Planning to captivate her with charm.
I know she'll never (wow!) stand a chance
Believing she won't resist the charm.
She's gonna love me from the start
Expecting her to fall in love initially.
And then I'm gonna break her heart
Despite the initial love, planning to break her heart later.
'Cause if you're not a gentleman, you're gonna hear from me
Repeating the warning that not being a gentleman will lead to consequences.
Oh, yes I will
Reaffirming the intention to take action.
Yes, I will
Restating the commitment to taking action.
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will!
Emphasizing the determination to take action multiple times.
But I'm a lover!
Despite the tough exterior, claiming to be a lover.
Man, my reputation!
Reflecting on the impact of one's reputation.
