Music A To Z: J Is For...

J is for... Jungle Love by Morris Day & The Time and Just A Girl by No Doubt.

I blame Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) for my love of this song, thank you Kevin Smith. It is also one of those songs that you can start playing around my college friends and they all start singing it.

Jungle Love

I, I've been watching you
I think, I wanna know ya
Said I, I'm a little dangerous
Girl, I'd love to show ya

My jungle love, yeah
I think, I wanna know ya
Jungle love
Girl, I'd love to show ya

You, you've got a pretty car
I think I wanna drive it
I ain't playin', said I drive a little dangerous
Take you to my crib, rip you off

My jungle love, yeah
I think, I wanna know ya
Jungle love
Girl, I'd love to show ya

Come on baby, where's your guts?
You wanna make love or what?

I wanna take you to my cage

Lock you up and hide the key
You only get water, baby
'Cause if you're hungry, take a bite of me

My jungle love, yeah
I think, I wanna know ya
Jungle love
Girl, I'd love to show ya

I think, I wanna
I wanna file my nails

My jungle love, yeah
I think, I wanna know ya
Jungle love
Girl, I'd love to show ya

Jungle love, that's right
Can't nobody fuck with me?
I got a bearskin rug
I got a fireplace too
And I'm all the way wild baby
All the things I could do to you

Jungle love
Yes, that's it

It's Just A Girl by No Doubt, I don't think it needs an explanation.

Just A Girl

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand
'Cause I'm just a girl, little 'ol me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights

Oh...I've had it up to here!
The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear

'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night I'm just a girl,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes

I'm just a girl,
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype

Oh...I've had it up to here!
Oh...am I making myself clear?
I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!
I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Makes me worry some

I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to Is making me numb
I'm just a girl, my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison

Oh...I've had it up to!
Oh...I've had it up to!!
Oh...I've had it up to here!
