Set-Back Suzy

. . . Wrote this in August 2012 as a retro-sound song, thinking it needed reworking. Read it today and decided, No, it'll do!! ENJOY!


SET-BACK SUZY


Come here and meet
Set-back Suzy.
Tell her “Hi” on Monday,
She’ll greet you on Tuesday.

Left home around noon
To get there at 11.
Real cool with The Latest,
She's always “high-5’in.”

Set-back Suzy!
Set-back Suzy!
Come back tomorrow
I’ll wait for you,
Truly!

Set-back Suzy
Movin’ with The Bump,
And I don’t mean hair—
It's all ‘bout the rump.

Born in the 80s,
Ooh! Color and discos
But she wears Levis
Totin’ a pistol.

Set-back Suzy!
Set-back Suzy!
Come back tomorrow
I’ll wait for you,
Truly!

Oh, she got the moves,
She got the tempo.
If she knew the beat
She’d be contempo.

Set-back Suzy!
Set-back Suzy!
Come back tomorrow
I’ll wait for you,
Truly!

Oh, she got the moves,
She got the tempo.
If she knew the beat
She’d be contempo.

Set-back Suzy!
Set-back Suzy!
Come back tomorrow
I’ll wait for you,
Truly!

This reminds me of a song I wrote called Back Seat Becky.I stole the name from a Cheers episode.I don't recall what it was about only I know it was about making out in the back seat of a car.Oh,this is cool,too!Tempo-Contempo rhyme;Love it!

Thanks, guys. A short, fun one, I hope! To the style of the (Kentucky) Everly Brothers' "Wake-Up Little Suzy."

I'm a life long fan of the Everly Brothers.Their harmonies were unequaled in their day.They also had looks that girls wanted in their boyfriends.Sometimes everything comes in one package;talent,looks and charisma!Oh,and that hair!

Frankie, I bet the Everly Bros would have liked Set-back Suzy a lot! It is indeed upbeat and an upbeat tempo it requires.

A nice surprise from your hand, Melady

Not really much "content" to these lyrics. But that's the point, I suppose. Set-Back Suzy as a person doesn't have much "content" either!
