Act Nice and Gentle
Gentle Acts: Unveiling the Essence of The Black Keys' Melodic Message
Lyrics
You don't need no fancy clothes
You don't need extravagant clothing
Where'd you get them, goodness knows?
Uncertain about the origin of your attire
Just show some civility
Show basic politeness and respect
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Behave in a kind and gentle manner towards me
I don't need no luxuries,
I'm not interested in materialistic things
As long as you are understanding
As long as you are understanding (empathetic)
I'm not difficult to please
I am easy to please
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Act kindly and gently towards me
Well I'm the kind of guy who likes
I prefer accepting people as they are
To take you as I find you
Accepting people without judgment
So throw away those false eyelashes and
Discouraging the use of artificial beauty enhancements
Act nice, act nice, baby
Behave in a nice and gentle manner
Come on baby, hold my hand
Invitation for physical closeness
Come on baby, understand, you gotta
Encouraging understanding in the relationship
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Reiteration of the need for kindness and gentleness
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Emphasizing the importance of being nice and gentle
Come on baby, hold my hand
Repeating the call for physical closeness
Come on baby, understand, you gotta
Reiterating the importance of understanding
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Stressing the need for kindness and gentleness
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me
Emphasizing the request for kind and gentle behavior
