Oh
Background
- There's not a lot of words in this song
- The "secret love" is really just teenage lust that's embarrassing but ever-present
- It's written from the viewpoint of a not-particularly-good-looking teenage male who sees attempts at courtship as something of a battle
- struggling with the dilemma of lusting after girls/women who he has less respect for than he might want to have ...
- ... to make it OK to fancy them so much.
- The "jester" and the "gentleman" are personality aspects he'd like to prevail in his attempts to encourage women to have sex with him
- they're at odds with other, less-appealing, aspects of his personality that'd he'd rather not expose or unearth
Lyrics
Oh young lady
Gird your loins and let the battle begin
This better be a secret love
And may the jester or the gentleman win
Oh
Oh get ready let the hut hut hut start
You may well be all over the place
But you sweat perfume my love
Oh
Oh
Oh
