Little Violet – Silent Movie

Jazz, Funky & Swing

Lyrics:
I don’t need no chitter chatter
Sweet nothings, tiresome natter
Words get in the way
I don’t need to hear what you have to say.

Chat up lines have become a bore
I just need a man I adore
A lustful hold and stare
A passionate love affair

I’m an old fashioned girl
Looking for a man to show me romance
Shower me with kisses and a moonlit dance

I want you to woo me
Take me back to black and white, like a silent movie
Squeeze me tight but hold your tongue
I want you to woo me
A gentleman will never tell
Like a silent movie
I don’t need no talking pictures

Suit and tie polished shoes
Slick back hair, no I can’t refuse
One wink and I am yours smile and I’ll fall to the floor
A simple tale of boy meets girl
He serenades with flowers and pearls
A lustful hold and stare
A passionate love affair

I’m an old fashioned girl
Looking for a man to show me romance
Shower me with kisses and a moonlit dance

I want you to woo me
Take me back to black and white, like a silent movie
Squeeze me tight but hold your tongue
I want you to woo me
A gentleman will never tell
Like a silent movie
I don’t need no talking pictures

The wandering eye oh why don’t you learn
Those broken hearts will continue to burn
A picture house will help me redeem
Take me to the stars on the screen.

I want you to woo me
Take me back to black and white, like a silent movie
Squeeze me tight but hold your tongue
I want you to woo me
A gentleman will never tell
Like a silent movie
I don’t need no talking pictures
