Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Oh! Down beside that red firelight.
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat-bottomed girls, you make the rockin world go 'round.

This post is for Monica Lewinsky, Alisa Walters, Lisa Cook, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jackie Onassis, and all the ladies whose names may have already been lost to the great beast of time. Mostly for Alisa Walters, because I feel her contributions to the world in a very real, and legally binding sense.

This song is for all the fat-bottomed girls.

You ladies make it all worthwhile.

Oh! Won't you take me home tonight?
Oh! Down beside your red firelight.
Oh! And you give it all you got.

Fat-bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go 'round.

GET ON YOUR BIKES AND RIDE!

And I couldn't have said it better myself. When a man works a job he hates, and tries to manage everything else in his life. When he's exhausted, and when he still tries to do the things he feels he has to do. Not for any base instinct, but because he feels an obligation to himself and his reality. The only reason is a fat-bottomed girl. One more time? You're right.

I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before i left my nursery
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Hey big woman, you made a bad boy out of me.

Hey hey.

Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Oh! Down beside that red firelight!
Are you gonna let it all hang out?

Fat-bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round.
