You'll Need a Duke
Pepper Coyote Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me what you want
Who you want me to be and maybe
I can make your fantasies come true
Size, shape, I'll be all
Baby all you can take so we can
Fall in ecstasy straight through
And as we're falling there's one guy to bring with you
You'll need a duke
While you're on your way
You'll need a duke
What else do I have to say
Just hold my hand and I stand up for a while til you're
Falling apart
Falling apart
Like I'm falling for you

Once, twice? Want it rough?
Or should I play it nice it's all the
Same to me as long as we can touch
Give, take, I will bend

But you know that I won't break and even
Though we're only inches away
You shouldn't be so quick to put me away

Cause you'll need a duke
While you're on your way
You'll need a duke
What else do I have to say
Just hold my hand and I stand up for a while til you're
Falling apart
Falling apart
Like I'm falling for you

Oh yeah, you'll need a duke
While you're on your way
You'll need a duke
What else do I have to say
Just hold my hand and I stand up for a while til you're
Falling apart
Falling apart
Like I'm falling for you




Falling apart
Like I'm falling for you
