"Mia Bocca" by Jill Jones

Could somebody post the lyrics to this song,and describe what it is really about? Jill seems to be talking about a guy she just met and how he's got her "feeling feelings that I ain't used to feeling",even though she already has a boyfriend.She doesn't wanna cheat on her boyfriend,but she insists that she must "do something" with this new guy.Since the phrase "mia bocca" means "my mouth",is she implying what I **think** she is?? smile

You're a trip and a half

I know those people say
They say you don't know how to love
But I want you anyway, Baby
You're like a drug
I can't get enough 'cause you,
You'd be great in motion pictures, child
'Cause you really got me blind
You'd be the only one I wanna see
Only one who done it to me every time
Ah do the do uhhuuh
You are like an ocean
Much too wide to cross
You are the cross that's
much too deep to bear
You are the star,
much too far away
But I don't care
You're a trip and a half
I want you every day
Hey

I have only had one lover
Since I was twelve years old
Since I don't care how hot you get me
I wouldn't do him cold
But there's something about you, Baby
That's got me koo koo
Would you hold it against me if I
said I loved another
[*some spanish words* mia bocca]

[*spanish words* mia bocca]
I love another
[*spanish words* mia bocca]
Don't want no other

Somethin's happenin' and I
just can't explain it
You do something to me
My body's shakin', Baby,
shake, shake, shakin', Baby
Shakin' like a leaf on a tree
I could never be unfaithful
Baby, I could never be
But boy, I got a feelin' that I
ain't used to feelin'
I gotta do something
[*some spanish words* mia bocca]

[*spanish words* mia bocca]
I love another
[*spanish words* mia bocca]
Don't want no other

I'll pretend that I'm in a movie
Make believe dreamworld [...]
You can be a page in my diary
If you promise not to tell my mama
There's something about you, Baby
That's got me koo koo
I can't explain
what's dancin' in my brain
I gotta do something
[*some spanish words* mia bocca]

[*spanish words* mia bocca]
I love another
[*spanish words* mia bocca]
Don't want no other

[*spanish spoken part*]

[*spanish words* mia bocca]
I love another (I love another)
[*spanish words* mia bocca]
Don't want no other (I don't want no other)

Don't you want my love

I'm goin' koo koo

[*spanish spoken part*]

Mia bocca

Hey gooey you skipped the Spanish lyrics! wink
Actually it's more a weird mix of Italian and Spanish:

Tu vuole la mia bocca
(...)
Sono caliente d' amore {I'm hot with love}
Il mio labio sono resbaloso {My lips are boiling hot}
Puoi toccare piano {U can touch softly}
Lo siento ma io voglio un altro {I'm sorry, but I love another one}

Well,it looks like none of you guys know what she's really singing about,either smile


It's funny,when I first bought the record back in 1987,I thought she was singing...


"To the land of Mia Bocca...I loved another
To the land of Mia Bocca...don't want no other"

And since the phrase "mia bocca" means "my mouth",I thought she meant that she performed oral sex on this new guy,but didn't really consider it to be "cheating".

Ugh,,,she doesn't look good in this picture. But she sho as hell looked pretty in the PR movie.

Not that its important but when I was watching the PR movie I was like "despite that this chic is whitest than white folks, I have this feeling that she have black blood in her" and I was right when I read her bio.

I love Jilly razz she's the best Prince female protege. I even think of her as the female Prince, she always reminds me of him.
