My Guy
Tracey Ullman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can take me away,
From my guy.
Nothing you could do,
'cause I'm stuck like glue,
To my guy.
I'm sticking to my guy,
Like a stamp to a letter,
We, stick together,
I can tell you from the start,
I can't be torn apart from my guy.
Nothing you could do,
Could make me be untrue,
To my guy.
(My Guy)
Nothing you could buy,
Could make me tell a lie,
To my guy
(My Guy)
I gave my guy,
My word of honour,
To be faithful,
And I'm gonna,
You'd better be believing,
I won't be deceiving,
My guy.
As a matter of opinion,
I think he's tops,
My opinion is,
He's the cream of the crop,
As a matter of taste,
To be exact,
He's my ideal,
As a matter of fact.
No muscle bound man,
Could take my hand,
From my guy.
(My guy)
No handsome face,
Could ever take the place,
Of my guy,
(My guy)
He may not be a movie star,
But when it comes to being happy,
We are,
There's not a man today,
Who can take me away,
From my guy.
The lyrics of Tracey Ullman's song "My Guy" are an ode to a woman's unrelenting loyalty to her significant other. The opening lines, "Nothing you can say, can take me away, from my guy," set the tone for the rest of the song. The woman proclaims that no matter what anyone could say or do, she is "stuck like glue" to her guy. She likens their bond to a stamp on a letter and birds of a feather who stick together. She emphasizes that from the start, she cannot be torn apart from her guy. The woman then goes on to say that nothing could make her be untrue or tell a lie to her guy because she gave him her word of honour to be faithful, and she won't be deceiving.
Furthermore, the woman declares her steadfast love for her guy and how he's the tops, the cream of the crop, and her ideal. She adds that no muscle-bound man or handsome face could ever take her hand or replace her guy, who may not be a movie star, but they are happy. She ends by stating that there's not a man today who can take her away from her guy.

Yes! That really is 80s labour leader Neil Kinnock
@stevedavis6879
Take me back to that era please .
@ajs41
Funny thing is I can remember it well even though I was only 5 years old. 1983/84 had a very distinctive atmosphere.
@rogerhuggettjr.7675
