Richard Thompson - All Buttoned Up [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I got a girl - best girl in the world
But she won't give me a taste of it
Saving her bed - maidenhead
That's what I call a waste of it
Crosses her arms - to hide all her charms
Like she's living in a nunnery
Gives me a wink - drive me to drink
I know she's only making fun of me

[Hook]
She's all buttoned up
All buttoned up, no place to go

[Verse 2]
She don't mind a squeeze - if I say please
I might even manage a kiss of her
But I'll get a slap - if I sit her on my lap
I call that so remiss of her

[Hook]
She's all buttoned up
All buttoned up, no place to go

[Verse 3]
She hates the stuff I bring her
She wants diamonds on her finger
She wouldn't let me in
Frothing at the mouth and barking
On all fours like Rin Tin Tin

My girl Kate - she wants me to wait
But I got urges, don't I?
I got desires - raging fires
But I'll do the right thing, won't I?

[Hook]
She's all buttoned up
All buttoned up, no place to go

[Verse 4]
She changes with the weather
She keeps her knees together
But she dresses so racy
Drawing Man into temptation
With everything silky, satiny, lacy

I got a girl - best girl in the world
But she won't give me a taste of it
Saving her bed - maidenhead
That's what I call a waste of it

[Hook]
She's all buttoned up
All buttoned up, no place to go
