The Story Behind "She Bop" (Pt. 2)
Steve Lunk called me up, little tipsy
And he told me actually, "Cyndi, you gotta go
Come here, because I want you to write a song about masturbation
Because no woman has had this before"
So I said, he said, "You'll be the first"
I said, "I'm good for first, I, you know I was the first female sticker in my collage"
I figured okay, but I made him go downstairs with me to the magazine shops
So that I could find what was a female magazine
There was playgirl, but that was kinda boring
And then there was like blue boy, which at that time in my ignorance
I thought it was a woman's magazine
It was not
But that's why in it says, "Well, I see 'em every night in tight blue jeans"
This a girls' a guy in a, in pages, they worn tight blue jeans, not, you know
So, I, again, tried to take real life and put into the song
(She bop, he bop, and we bop)
(I bop, you bop, and they bop)
(Be bop, be bop)
And he told me actually, "Cyndi, you gotta go
Come here, because I want you to write a song about masturbation
Because no woman has had this before"
So I said, he said, "You'll be the first"
I said, "I'm good for first, I, you know I was the first female sticker in my collage"
I figured okay, but I made him go downstairs with me to the magazine shops
So that I could find what was a female magazine
There was playgirl, but that was kinda boring
And then there was like blue boy, which at that time in my ignorance
I thought it was a woman's magazine
It was not
But that's why in it says, "Well, I see 'em every night in tight blue jeans"
This a girls' a guy in a, in pages, they worn tight blue jeans, not, you know
So, I, again, tried to take real life and put into the song
(She bop, he bop, and we bop)
(I bop, you bop, and they bop)
(Be bop, be bop)
