conceptually, this might be the best song ever written. its actually quite simple, the mimics your standard 1950's love song. chord positionings aren't exactly right here, the chords themselves are. Life is tough and love is rough For the man who just can't ever seem to get enough The days go by and the women come and go So many that you decide to get rid of your front door So you don't have to hear them all disappear You just sit and you wait Staring at your empty plate nd you can say I'm a lonely sailor Rockin' gently on my dreams 'Cause I have it all, but I don't want it all It ain't like I've never ever ever ever tried I just never been fully satisfied Just to tie a little shoelace And to share a sleeping bag And I look ahead to the day When I look back at all the fun that I've had [Hold G, throw in G7 at end for style] But still, but still, but still.. [little lead in bass riff (left hand in C/G chord formation)] A|3-3---3-3--3-3--3-3-2-2-0-0--0-0--0-0-0-0-2-2-| E|----3----3----3------------3---3----3--------| [use a brush picking technique for this part] I see so many little boys I want to marry I see plenty little kids I've yet to have Even when the moon goes out Even when the sea dries out I still see so many little boys I want to marry I see plenty little kids I've yet to have now Even when the sea's all free And everything's lying on me Even when the sun ceases to shine I won't care, I'll still have on my mind So many little boys I want to marry yeah yeah I see plenty little kids I've yet to have And in the shower I get my dreaming done I hold my breath and I wait for the day to come Oh little Billy, little Timmy, little Jimmy, you're the one I may not look it, but I swear my heart is young for so many.. Little boys I want to marry

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson explore le dilemme d'un homme en quête d'amour dans un monde où les relations semblent éphémères. Il se sent perdu, souvent insatisfait malgré ses tentatives de trouver la joie dans des connexions superficielles. Au milieu de ses réflexions, il mentionne son désir d'avoir des enfants et son aspiration à un amour durable, matérialisé par l'image de "petits garçons" qu'il rêve d'épouser. Le ton évoque une nostalgie pour une innocence perdue et un souhait d'authenticité dans un monde qui peut paraître froid et transitoire. Les références à des moments simples, comme partager un sac de couchage, rappellent la simplicité des désirs humains, tandis que l’idée de chercher la plénitude au-delà des plaisirs passagers reste omniprésente.
