about
Written in 1988 or 89. Recorded on 4-track, then recorded on demo, then revisited in an arrangement by my brother (and performer in his own right) Brendan Lynch.
lyrics
I've been making like a pendulum
Just swinging to and fro
Oh, he loves me
He loves me not
You know, it's like to give me vertigo
This time I think, "You'll reap just what you sow.
You've got yourself one bad stud."
Then you go and nip it in the bud

Ever since the first time I saw you
My heart's been hammering in my chest
But every time I make headway with you
My superego says, "Give it a rest"
I wanna serenade you but I come out
Sounding like Elmer Fudd
Who'd blame you if you
Nipped it in the bud?

You think my life is cigareets, whiskey &
I'm a wild, wild woman
But how can I show you
That ain't the way I'm living?
'Cause I drink Dubonnet
I keep cigareets at bay
And I've got a sex life like Doris Day

So if I sidle up to you
I'm just pretending you're a single man
I'm just hoping and praying
For the day that I won't be an also-ran
Maybe someday you'll be free
And my name won't be mud
Then you won't have to nip it in the bud
