Have you ever read the lyrics to “Spice up your life” by the Spice girls?
WHAT?
You haven’t?!?
I thought everyone had read them.
Don’t be too hard on yourself. I hadn’t read them either – key word “hadn’t.”
My little 6’4″ tall brother and I were discussing dating today. I have grown very tired of the standard dinner date which more often than not goes like this: Blah blah blah - oh really? that’s great – blah blah blah – I just laughed at your dumb joke but I didn’t really think it was funny – blah blah blah - do I look interested? – blah blah blah – wow I should be an actress – blah blah blah.
Of course a dinner date is a great first date but after the first initial few dates it’s nice to get out and DO something. My brother told me I should start playing “Spice up your life” by the Spice Girls for boys who wish to take me on multiple dates.
I wasn’t sure. I haven’t actually listened to the words of that song. But ScottPete does usually give good advice
so I decided to read the lyrics. Here’s what I found.
La la la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la, La la la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la,
So far so good. I’m all about the “La-la”s.
When you’re feeling sad and low, we will take you where you gotta go. Smiling, dancing, everything is free. All you need is positivity.
Ok – not as good as the “La-la”s but let’s see what’s next.
Colours of the world (spice up your life!) Every boy and every girl (spice up your life!) People of the world (spice up your life!) Aah…
Hmm. I want these boys to spice up MY life – not their own.
Slam it to the left (if you’re having a good time) Now there is a discrepancy to this one – I found an alternate version that says “Slam ME to the left” Shake it to the right (if you know that you feel fine) Chicas to the front (huh huh) and go round Hi, see ya, hold tight! La la la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la, La la la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la
I love the “La-la”s.
Yellow men in Timbuktu. Colour for both me and you. Kung-fu fighting, dancin queen. Tribal spaceman and all that’s in between. Flamenco, lambada, but hip-hop is harder. We moonwalk the foxtrot, then polka the salsa. Shake it shake it shake it, haka! Shake it shake it shake it, haka! Arriba!
That last verse was poetically beautiful. Yep! ScottPete is right. THIS is the song for the boys I date. I think I’m just going to print out the lyrics and go from there.




frustrated.
way on the street because kissing really tall, hot, intelligent men with accents is gross!! When I was faced with a decision. Do I take
