Ike and Tina Turner’s songs knew about that! The grunts in Suzi’s song prove its sincerity. It fulfills as it drains you it’s special. Being used is such a dynamic part of love. Gah, I hate what political correctness has done to eradicate the complexity of relationships. “All my life I wanted to be somebody, and here I am! I’m a hammer from hell, oh honey can’t you tell?

Next she’s telling a guy (presumably another lovah) don’t expect breakfast, and that he looks ugly!? She says a lot of stuff that you shouldn’t say! Like that she’d rather have her beer than her man, or that another lovah is so young, like a teenage runaway, he’s gonna get “torn.” What does that mean? I can think of about five possibilities, each filthier than the last. It’s rock! Gritty garage attitude, with studio clarity.

It’s shocking enough when lean men play like that (they always do seem to be lean, no?), but for a woman, a girl, in the 1970s, when we’d just come out of golden hair halo Flower Power?

I could clean the house, finish a painting, finish my taxes, go on a date with a bad man, have a beer-things I should do, things I shouldn’t.
