I take it, you're not a fan of repetitively recursive redundancy?

Yeah, it does seem like lazy songwriting. If they really wanted to be lazy, it would have probably been better to omit the second line, and just use an echo effect on the first line.

Don't misrepresent the great Neil Diamond.
It goes:
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon, you'll need a man
It goes:
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon, you'll need a man
THIS MUSIC HAS BEEN MIXED TO BE PLAYED LOUD SO TURN IT UP

A bit late in responding, but finally worked that lyric out:
Love requires 2 hands. No love: only 1 hand needed. Hence love is a second hand emotion.

"ricky don't lose gagamba, it's the only one you want"
cos i was like "what the hell is a gagamba?" for a while.
and i might have used "gagam" and "gamba" in scrabble
and the scrabble computer word judge rejected them
for being "not valid"
and i had to come up with a "valid" word to continue
and a i lost the game cos i wasted about 10+ seconds
and the game is only 60 seconds long

When I was a little girl I had a rag doll
The only doll I ever owned
Now I love you just the way I love that rag doll…
When you were a young boy, did you have a puppy
That always followed you around?
Well, I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
….
Who thinks this way? Weirds me out, even though it’s #33 in Rolling Stone’s Greatest Rock Songs of All Time

This is a classic case of a misheard song lyric. Here's the actual lyric:harryupbabble wrote: ↑Sun Jul 16, 2023 1:53 pm "ricky don't lose gagamba, it's the only one you want"
"Rikki don't lose that gumbo. It's the only one you want."
