Your Mamma Won't Like Me

Suzi Quatro

℗ 1975 RAK Records SRAK 514

Suzi Quatro • 1975 • Your Mamma Won't Like Me

Третий студийный альбом Сьюзи Кватро. К 1975 году Сьюзи уже является признанной певицей с международным именем и репутацией "примадонны хард-рока". Ей удалось в полной мере доказать, что миниатюрная и хрупкая девушка может быть не только хорошей певицей и устраивать яркие сценические шоу, но и успешно справляться с ролью бас-гитаристки, пусть не такой сильной и изощрённой, как, например, Джон Пол Джонс или Крис Скуайер, но вполне достойно работающей в рамках своего стиля. В качестве бонусов добавлены две песни в дуэте с Крисом Норманом 1978 года.


The divine Miss Q's third album is, unfortunately, the least divine of them all, an album that finds her in catatonic chrysalis stage, midway through the reinvention that turned the early '70s' most convincing rocker chick into the later decade's homespun sweetheart. Maybe she was, as the song says, "A Prisoner of Your Imagination" — or, at least, of her own former image, which was much the same thing. But there were surely better ways of unlocking the cage than this. Both "Your Mama Won't Like Me" and "I Bit off More Than I Can Chew," spun off as singles during 1975, offer little more than watered-down power balladry, still playing on Quatro's bad-girl image but determined that no one would take it seriously any longer. Neither is the absence of any of the stripped-down '50s covers, which had previously given her an excuse to blast out, remedied by a lukewarm "Fever." Thankfully, this diversion into mediocrity was swiftly remedied by her next couple of albums, and time has repaired any damage that they failed to address. But still, the album's title demands just one rejoinder. Of course your mama won't like her — she's not stupid. — Dave Thompson.

I Bit Off More Than I Could Chew

(Chapman — Chinn)

Turn down the bedroom lights and warm my soul
Let all your inhibitions go
We'll reach the kind of heights we've never known
Laid back and easy
Take it slow slow slow
But wait, are your intentions what I think they are
Unless you've sold it won't you hand me back the keys to my car

Well I guess I never knew
I bit off more than I could chew
When you handed me that offer, I shoulda said no to you
Oh mamma mamma mamma
Well I guess you always knew
That I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew

Ooh come closer baby
Let your soul relax, we're old enough to face the facts
Get off the rails, and let your train get on my tracks
But wait a minute, is that the way you always act
I've met your kind before, I know I know your game
You didn't even take the time to ask my name

Well I guess I never knew
I bit off more than I could chew
When you handed me that offer, I shoulda said no to you
Oh Oh Oh mamma mamma mamma
Well I guess I never knew
That I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew

Well I guess I never knew
I bit off more than I could chew
When you handed me that offer, I shoulda said no to you
Oh mamma mamma mamma
Well I guess you always knew
That I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew
Well I bit off I bit off I bit off I bit off more than I could chew

Strip Me

(Chapman - Chinn)

You might have thought I acted strange when you gave me...
Diamonds .. Rubies .. Minks .. And pearls
You might have thought I was insane when I turned down ...
Money, honey
I ain't that kind of girl
Your cadillac is filled with roses in the back
You got a feelin' I won't love you if I ever
Give 'em back
Some things you give me never see the light of day
So I'll thank you baby, thank you if you'd take them all away
So ....
STRIP ME!
Of all you gave me
STRIP ME!
Baby Baby Baby Baby
STRIP ME!
Yeah only you can save me
And I'll keep on loving you 'til the day I die
You introduce me to all your friends as the girl most likely to be ...
Wined and dined
I ain't amusing I refuse to be used like money, honey
I ain't that way inclined
My brand new window has view of the park
But what's the point of buying it if I can't see it in the dark
You made me realise why you invested in that car
But I'd rather have you stay at home and have you just the way are
STRIP ME!
Of all you gave me
STRIP ME!
Baby Baby Baby Baby
STRIP ME!
Yeah only you can save me
And I'll keep on loving you 'til the day I die
STRIP ME!
Of all you gave me
STRIP ME!
Baby Baby Baby Baby
STRIP ME!
Yeah only you can save me
And I'll keep on loving you 'til the day I die
STRIP ME!
Of all you gave me
STRIP ME!
Baby Baby Baby Baby
STRIP ME!
Yeah only you can save me
And I'll keep on loving you 'til the day I die

Paralysed

(Quatro - Tuckey)

You asked if you could stay the night
And just to be polite I said yeah
I could see right along that we could get it on I said yeah
Gonna spin my wheel's all over this town
If I catch you with your trousers down
The stories you heard they're gonna be confirmed
You won't believe your eyes
'Cos you'll be paralysed
Mechanised
Sterilised
You'll be paralysed
Behind my cheek just a little mystique I said yeah
When I call you up at home you better be alone Isaid yeah
And I might only need you once a week
I get my kicks from magazines
The stories you heard they're gonna be confirmed
You won't believe your eyes
'Cos you'll be paralysed
Mechanised
Sterilised
You'll be paralysed
You asked if you could stay the night
And just to be polite I said yeah

The stories you heard they're gonna be confirmed
You won't believe your eyes
'Cos you'll be paralysed

Prisoner of Your Imagination

(Quatro - Tuckey)

I beleive you think I'm cheating
Visions in your mind
But seeing is believing
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
Late last night I was sleeping
What you saw was a dream
Nightmares only scare children
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
You're playing around with my life
Imagine I'm telling you lies
You're looking through hate coloured eyes
Surrounded by a rosy disguise
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
Of your imagination
Oh I see your heart is aching
Mamma's boy's feeling grey
Live in the misery you're making
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're playing around with my life
Imagine I'm telling you lies
You're looking through hate coloured eyes
Surrounded by a rosy disguise
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination
You're a prisoner of your imagination

Your Mamma Won't Like Me

(Chapman - Chinn)

I wear my jeans too short, and my neckline's too low
I'm getting stared at wherever I go
I wear my jeans too tight, and I stay out all night
And when you turn me on you'll see how I can bite
And now my preoccupation is making love
Hon hon hon
I got a bad reputation through playing around
I like your stimulation, but that aint enough
So don't take me home babyNa Na Na Na Na
Your mamma won't like meOh
So don't take me home honey nowNa Na Na Na
'Cos your manma won't like me
I like my music loud, and I stand out in a crowd
By doing everything I know I shouldn't do
So when you hold me tight, I won't put up a fight
I'll just knock you out and watch you coming to
Just put me in a situation where I'm turning you on
Hon hon hon
I'll be the devil's recreation and before too long
You could feel the the sensation that's oh so strong
So Don't take me home babyNa Na Na Na Na

Can't Trust Love

(Quatro - Tuckey)

Riding down the highway
Finding time to do it my way
No destination
Heading for that open skyway
And I can't trust love no more
No I can't trust love no more
Well I'm a broken hearted woman
Running down my own home track now
Ride free at fifteen
Since then I ain't looked back now
And I can't trust love no more
No I can't trust love no more
No No NoNo No NoNo No No
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
Can't trust love
I met a man in Memphis
I thought I'd take another chance now
One night of loving that's all
It's just that same old song and dance
And I can't trust love no more
No I can't trust love no more
No No NoNo No NoNo No No

New Day Woman

(Quatro - Tuckey)

I'm a new day woman
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
I got a feeling like I just want to get away
I can't stand this masquerade for one more day
My heart is aching just beginning to understand
Am I in love now
I used to be what you call the other kind
I had no direction they said I had a strange, strange mind
I got new found freedom you know it can't be my rock 'n' roll
C'mon and join me now
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
I'm a new day woman
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
I'm a new day woman
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Yes a new day woman

Fever

(Davenport — Cooley)

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever, that's so hard to bear

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever, in the morning
Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And I know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever, in the morning
Fever all through the night

Everybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet, she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said "Julie Baby, You're my flame"

Thou givest fever, when he kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever, I'm afire
Fever, yeah I burn for thou

Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very very mad affair
When her Daddy tried to kill him
She said, "Daddy, Oh, Don't you dare!"

He gives me fever
With his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his Misses
Daddy, won't you treat him right?

Now you've listened to my story
Here's a point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade

They give you Fever, when you kiss them
Fever, if you live, you learn
Fever, 'till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn

What a lovely way to burn (fever)
What a lovely way to burn (fever)
What a lovely way to burn (fever)
What a lovely way to burn (fever)
What a lovely way to burn (fever)…

You Can Make Me Want You

(Quatro - Tuckey)

Well you thought you got an angel
But I'll tell you it just ain't so
This careless mamma ain't no baby don't you know
When you touch me you set me aglow
And when I'm in your arms I really don't wanna go
You can make me want you
But I ain't gonna love you
Ain't gonna be the one at home waitin' for you
I feel the rhythm but I'm never gonna feel the pain
Lady little lady
I'm an actress in your game
Dancin' and romancin'
What you tryin' to gain
Just lead me up to your bed
But if I stay all night
I'm gonna get inside of your head
You can make me want you
But I ain't gonna love you
Ain't gonna be the one at home waitin' for you
I feel the rhythm but I'm never gonna feel the pain
Just like the rain is falling
Tears pour from my eyes
You know the way you feel
For me came as no surprise
I guess I'll be moving on
'Cos another lover's arms
Are waiting for me to call
You can make me want you
But I ain't gonna love you
Ain't gonna be the one at home waitin' for you
I feel the rhythm but I'm never gonna feel the pain
I feel the rhythm but I'm never gonna feel the pain

Michael

(Quatro - Tuckey)

Michael
It's final
Scratch off my insane gain
I bought it
I fought it
Michael you'll never change
Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Mr. Vain
Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Mr. Vain

You flirted and hurted
Why must we act insane
It's certain I'm deserted
I'll never be the same
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Been livin' with your Id
But now that old magic's gone
I'm leavin' yes believe it
Oh Michael I'm movin' on
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Michael
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain
Badada Badadadada Mr. Vain

Stumblin' In

(Chapman - Chinn)

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in

Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in

Wherever you go, whatever you do
You know these reckless thoughts of mine are following you
I'm falling for you, whatever you do
'Cos baby you've shown me so many things that I never knew
Whatever it takes, baby I'll do it for you

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in

Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in

You were so young, and I was so free
I may been young, but baby that's not what I wanted to be
Well you were the one, oh why was it me
'Cos baby you've shown me so many things that I've never seen
Whatever you need, baby you've got it from me

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in

Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in

Stumblin' in
Stumblin' in

Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in
Aagh stumblin' in
Mm stumblin' in
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in
Oh stumblin' in
I'm stumblin' in

Foolishly laying our hearts on the table
Stumblin' in
Whoa stumblin' in
Aagh stumblin' in
I'm stumblin' in
Keep on stumblin' in
Now and then firelight will catch us
Stumblin' in
