All I want to do is make love to yooooouuuu.


You know you are infertile when you hear the song All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You and you scoff one hundred times at the person who wrote the ridiculous lyrics (clearly the same person who instilled in me during the high school years that every time you have sex you get pregnant).

Here's the song lyrics with my notes:

It was a rainy night
When he came into sight,
Standing by the road,
No umbrella, no coat.
So I pulled up alongside
And I offered him a ride.
(Was she looking for him?
Did she know she was ovulating?
Were her temperatures up?)
He accepted with a smile,
So we drove for a while.
(Also, what kind of a woman
picks up a stranger
at night, in the rain.
Oh, yeah.
A woman who wants to
get pregnant by him.)

I didn’t ask him his name,
This lonely boy in the rain.
Fate, tell me it’s right,
Is this love at first sight?
Please don’t make it wrong,
Just stay for the night.
(Sister wouldn’t use protection
with a complete stranger?
Must have been pre-1980).

All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will
You want me too
All I wanna do is make love to you
I’ve got lovin arms to hold on to
(I’m thinking this guy didn’t have to be begged,
but can you imagine his reaction
if he found out what she was up to?
PSYCHO.)

So we found this hotel,
It was a place I knew well
(umm, why?)
We made magic that night.
Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me,
So many times, easily
(of course, because she lives
in a fairy tale where she has multiple orgasms
and one night of sex with a stranger
results in the pregnancy
she’s always been waiting for).
And in the morning when he woke all
I left him was a note.

I told him
I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden
We planted a tree
Don’t try to find me,
Please don’t you dare
Just live in my memory,
You’ll always be there
(Honey, he was out that door
The minute you said seed!)

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I wanna do is make love to you
I’ve got lovin arms to hold on to

Oh, oooh, we made love
Love like strangers
All night long
We made love
(or, in her words,
leh-hev).

Then it happened one day,
We came round the same way
You can imagine his surprise
When he saw his own eyes
(And when he recognized you
after one night of sex
on a dark rainy night!
Hello?
Are you with me?)

I said please, please understand
I’m in love with another man
And what he couldn’t give me
(ah, the ol’ male factor infertility, eh?)
Was the one little thing that you can
(And what does the other man
think about all of this?
Does he know?
Doesn't he notice that
the baby doesn't have his eyes?
Heh)

All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will, you want me too

All night long
All night long
All night long
All night long.
(The worst sonnnnggg).

not been exposed

  1. Heheheeheh. I don't even know this song and I was dying, laughing, at your comments. I must go YouTube this...

  2. Ok, that was by Heart, and it was more like circa 1990. Tacky, yes.

  3. Oh, dear God, I'm nearly peeing myself over here. This is hilarious. Love your lyrics much better than the Heart version.
