Neneh Cherry & Michael Stipe - Trout

from Neneh Cherry's 1992 "Homebrew" LP

You can find some time to be someone
Like a valentine for a lonely soul
You can treat me like a fool
And hate-

Some love brings me down
Some love turns me round and round
and round and round
and round and round and round and round and round
Is it something that I said
Is it something that I did
Is it something that I, that I got
in my head
Laying in my bed is so real
'Cause I know what I feel
But together we stand and together
we lay

Hey listen to the voice of experience

This is how I live tomorrow and today

Listen to the voice of experience

That's how I live

Stop the beat. Listen to the melody

Round and round and round and round

Huh, yeah I know when I got the feeling
A feeling of love knocking on my door
First there was fifty and then there was more
What a bore then there was none
Now there's one cause I'm a lucky one
Feelings of love I've got feelings of affection
Come on and give it to me give it with protection
There's no time we're out of luck
The law says we can't talk about A ---?
Huh

Chorus:

Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round

But I need some S-E-X-E-D-U-C-A-T-I-O-N yeah
Sex education
For the people ya 'all

Parents and teachers get together get cool
Children need to learn about sex
in school
Children need to learn about sex in school
You think they don't do it??
Don't get fooled
Parents don't turn your back on the pack
Teachers want to teach but the law says whack
Don't let your kid get caught
Without a jimmy hat
and that's just the start
Take it to the heart
of the matter
talk about it talk about it

Sister sister, kissing by the tree
Ripe right for picking something sweet
Brother brother what's it gonna be
K-I-S-S-I-N-G
Teacher, teacher, teacher teach us S-E-X
Teach it to us stupid without the FX
Teacher teach us with your ABCs
Rollin' on the alphabet I'm gonna
Get to Z.

Chorus

This was an awesome duet for its time and tune remains relatively unknown to this day; a cult classic in my book. Thanks for posting!!

[zarkinfrood2]

@ClarenceBoddicker87

Yes that's right ... the first time I heard the song begins I was kind of surprised that they were playing "The Pusher" !

[ClarenceBoddicker87]

@downfan1 Steppenwolf "the Pusher" & the drums are from Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks"

[Draggis92]

Entourage brought me here<3

[downfan1]

what song is this riff originally from? Does anyone know? It doesn't say it in the cd book, cause my mom has this cd from back in the day, but i remember this song and riff is good.
