The Kinks - Lola

The Kinks - Lola

Lyrics:

I met her in a club down in North Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Cherry Cola
C-O-L-A Cola.

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance.
I asked her name and in a dark brown voice she said, "Lola"
L-O-L-A Lola, lo lo lo Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy,
But when she squeesed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, lo lo lo Lola

Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walks like a woman and talks like a man
Oh my Lola, lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo Lola

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night,
Under electric candlelight,
She picked me up and sat me on her knee,
She said, "Little boy won't you come home with me?"

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy,
But when I looked in her eyes,
I almost fell for my Lola,
Lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo Lola

I pushed her away. I walked to the door.
I fell to the floor. I got down on my knees.
I looked at her, and she at me.

Well that's the way that I want it to stay.
I always want it to be that way for my Lola.
Lo lo lo Lola.

Girls will be boys, and boys will be girls.
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world,
except for Lola. Lo lo lo Lola. Lo lo lo Lola.

Well I left home just a week before,
and I never ever kissed a woman before,
Lola smiled and took me by the hand,
she said, "Little boy, gonna make you a man."

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man,
but I know what I am and that I'm a man,
so is Lola.
Lo lo lo Lola. Lo lo lo Lola.

"Where you drink champange and it tastes just like cherry cola"

I interpret that to mean that the protagonist's drink had been spiked in some way.

[fritzquarar]

Ahh, Memories,like the- Oh, well, Love this tune. I'm hetero and drove a cab for eons and as any cabbie w/tell you-- when the clubs close down, it's the last chance for all the poor frustrated boys to have a go w/the cabbie, see. Had one, who I've driven before, and he was sooo horny he started offering money. "Now I'm insulted uh, Steve. Just go in and take a shower or whack off or something." He tipped me well (Gays are fab tippers) and said as he stepped out, " Yeah, Lola evokes memories.

@YorkshireMinor The original line was "Coca Cola." After the singer flew back to the UK, they found out that Coke wouldn't let them use it in the song. He had to fly back to L.A. to re-record that one line to "Cherry Cola."
