Now You’re Talkin’ Lyrics By Deep Purple

Some are in the garden with a bottle of Chardonnay, pinkies up in the air
We steppin' over the gruesome twosome, still making out on the stairs
There's a whole load of bodies, kinda hard to tell
Could be a menage-a-many from hell
And I don't know who's doing what to whom, but surely they are doing it well

Whatever does you good
Lifts your skirt
Gets you done
Unbuttons your shirt
Wakes you up
Turns your head
Hits the spot

That guy from the dealership he can't be still, he's bouncing up and down all the time
Luvvies in the kitchen, full of virtue and compassion, you hear that righteous whine
A bunch a freaking eejits swivelling on their digits, dumber than the average bear
OMFG the state of me, man, whatever happened to my hair

Whatever does you good
Lifts your skirt
Gets you done
Unbuttons your shirt
Wakes you up
Turns your head
Hits the spot
Well, now you're talkin'

Ring-tone Joe is gazing in the bowl, he's deep-arm fishing for his phone
Renee is full of guilt, she's had it up to the hilt, but it's far too soon to go home
The neighbours are screaming and banging on the wall, our music is not to their taste
This thing'll end badly if it ends at all, man, the place is getting laid to waste

Whatever does you good
Lifts your skirt
Gets you done
Unbuttons your shirt
Wakes you up
Turns your head
Hits the spot
Now you're talkin'

[Verse 1: Deep Purple] The narrator describes a vibrant party atmosphere with guests engaging in various activities. The mention of people in the garden with Chardonnay and the "gruesome twosome" making out on the stairs sets the scene for a wild gathering. The image of a "menage-a-many from hell" humorously exaggerates the chaotic nature of the party, highlighting the hedonistic behavior of the attendees.

[Chorus: Deep Purple] The chorus underscores the idea of indulging in whatever brings pleasure and satisfaction. The phrases "lifts your skirt," "gets you done," and "unbuttons your shirt" are metaphors for activities that bring excitement and liberation. The repetition of "hits the spot" emphasizes the pursuit of moments that provide immediate gratification.

[Verse 2: Deep Purple] The second verse introduces more colorful characters, such as the hyperactive guy from the dealership and the virtuous "luvvies" in the kitchen. The narrator reflects on their own disheveled state, adding a touch of self-deprecating humor. The chaotic and absurd nature of the party is further emphasized with the mention of "freaking eejits" and the narrator's bewilderment at the state of their hair.

[Chorus: Deep Purple] The chorus is repeated, reinforcing the theme of seeking pleasure and indulgence. The phrase "now you're talkin'" suggests a sense of approval and validation for embracing hedonistic behavior.

[Verse 3: Deep Purple] The third verse continues to paint a picture of the wild party, with "Ring-tone Joe" fishing for his phone in a bowl and "Renee" feeling guilty but reluctant to leave. The mention of neighbors complaining about the noise and the place being "laid to waste" highlights the excessive nature of the gathering. The verse underscores the idea that the party is on the verge of spiraling out of control.

[Chorus: Deep Purple] The final chorus reiterates the theme of indulgence and pleasure, with the phrase "now you're talkin'" serving as a closing affirmation of the song's hedonistic message. The repeated lines emphasize the carefree and permissive attitude towards seeking moments of enjoyment amidst the chaos.
