lyrics

SHAKEN & STIRRED

Girl, I know you're playing but this is serious to me.
Girl, I hear your pleading so this is difficult for me.

Hold your horses!
Well, she's a thoroughbread.
She's fond of the track- I prefer the pasture,
And there'll be hell to pay if I don't trot right out of her life!

Stop this train!
It's building up steam.
Come to a grinding halt- oh no, it's not your fault.
See I've been down this track, and I'm feeling so disconnected.

I don't want to be shaken and stirred!

Girl, I know you're playing but this is serious to me.
Girl, I hear your pleading so this is difficult for me.

Send my regrets!
I can't bear it anymore.
With all those party people trying hard to impress,
I've downed one too many colorful cocktails!

Stop the presses!
I've got a headline for you.
Man steps aside- let's woman test her wings,
And I'll be last week's news if I don't walk away from you!

I don't want to be shaken and stirred!

Girl, I know you're playing but this is serious to me.
Girl, I hear your pleading so this is difficult for me.

Picture In Mind
by Rachel Love

supported by 5 fans who also own “Shaken & Stirred”

This is music that softly, gently, melodically improves the atmosphere. I first heard Rachel via The Dolly Mixture. That music helped me find beauty while living in a rough childhood home. I later ran away, taking my Dolly Mixture cassette with me. Many decades on, life's difficult, the world is troubled, but Rachel's music once again adds an element of beauty. Her music is something to cherish. Cheers, Rachel. Andy Waltzer
