Dan Reed Network "Tiger in a Dress"

Selena in her leopard jacket - a feline predator in human disguise!

Look out boy, here she comes!

New Mercedes well who's your victim tonite
Nobody's baby, that girl will cut you that's rite
That girl will chew you up
She don't know when to stop
New Mercedes well who's your victim tonite

I say oh-oh-oh
She's a tiger - tiger in a dress
She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress

New Mercedes be on the lookout tonite
Low rider baby she'll cruise rite into your life
That girl will hunt you down
You better not be around
New Mercedes be on the lookout tonite

I say oh-oh-oh
She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress
She's takin' on the bad boys baby
And living on the wild side
She's a tiger and there's nowhere to hide

She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress
She's takin' on the bad boys baby...

Tiger
A tiger cruisin through the streets
She's gotta hunger underneath the sheets
She makes you wish that you were stronger

She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress
She's takin' on the bad boys baby...

She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress
She's a tiger - a tiger in a dress
Let's rock & roll...

Heroes del Silencio "La Herida"

Below all her coolness hides the vulnerable, injured Selena, longing for love... ("La Herida" means "The Wound" in English)

siempre es la misma función, el mismo
espectador,
el mismo teatro, en el que tantas veces
actuó.
perder la razón en un juego tan real
quizás fuera un error, cúrame esta herida,
por favor.
qué hay en dos amigos
cuando después de todo
parecen perdidos
y prefieren a otros?
qué dan lerdas manos,
ignorando lo dado,
si antaño se estrecharon,
ahora están engañados?
qué les hizo alejarse
de su "orilla intranquila",
tan siquiera un instante
piensan en esos días?
siempre es la misma función, el mismo
espectador,
el mismo teatro, en el que tantas veces
actuó.
perder la razón en un juego tan real
quizás fuera un error, cúrame esta herida,
por favor.
siempre he preferido
un beso prolongado,
aunque sepa que miente,
aunque sepa que es falso.
que demonios acurre
cuando miradas no se encuentran?
la pelea de gallos, se admiten apuestas.
quién buscó abrigo
en algún otro lugar?
es posible que el frio
venga con la edad?
siempre es la misma función, el mismo
espectador,
el mismo teatro, en el que tantas veces
actuó.
perder la razón en un juego tan real
quizás fuera un error, cúrame esta herida
por favor.
siempre es la misma función, el mismo
espectador,
el mismo teatro, en el que tantas veces
actuó.
y perder la razón en un juego tan real
quizás fuera un error, cúrame esta herida
por favor.

The Sisters of Mercy "More"

Selena seems to be superficial and materialistic, but what she really wants is one thing: love.

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more
I want more

(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)

D'you get scared to feel so much?
To let somebody touch you?
So hot, so cold, so far so out of control
Hard to come by, and harder to hold

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
I want more

(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)

There are parts of me that don't get nervous
Not the parts that shake
You won't get what you deserve
You are what you take
Learning to cry for fun and profit
I'm not done yet
Counterfeit dollars or the English zloty
Anything I can get

Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more

(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)

(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love that you can get
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to
(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love that you can get
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to

(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to
And I need
(and I need all the love I can get)
I Can't get to
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to

(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love that I can can't get
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to
(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love that I can can't get to
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
And I need

(and I need all the love I can get)
All the love that I can can't get
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)
That I can't get to
(and I need all the love I can get)
(and I need all the love that I can't get to)

can't get to
and i need
All the love
That you can't get

Bow Wow Wow "Baby, Oh No"

vet2b thinks: ""That one should be Selena's theme song!"

He's a man I ain't never seen
But my people told me so
He's a man with a catch in his hand
He's my baby, my baby oh no

Ain't Friday night but I'm feeling alright
I'm so ready to go with my baby oh no

B-b-baby, oh no
You make me lose my self control
I go crazy, whoa
Baby your love it doesn't show

Hot and mean he's a rhythm machine
He can move it fast or slow
Man of style he don't never smile
He's my baby, my baby, oh no

My head's in a mess and I'm torn by distress
But I ain't going to rest gonna make him say yes

B-b-baby, oh no...

I want him I need him
I want him I need him
I want him I need him
I want him I need him

He can move it he can groove it
He's a rhythm machine
He can take me he can break me
He's so hot and smooth
He's my lover he's my hero
Take your thoughts to be strong
My baby, my baby, my baby, oh no

My head's in a mess and I'm torn by distress
But I ain't going to rest gonna make him say yes

B-b-baby, oh no...

Dalbello "Tango"

Selena and the Tango have some things in common: cool and controlled, but at the same time also passionate and highly erotic!

your arms
rest upon my shoulders
you're hypnotized
never try to break my stare

put your mouth on mine
your back arched low
your skin feels tight
a sudden urge within
pulsate pulsate
you and i begin
to tango skin to skin

CHORUS
feel the drama rise
look deep into my eyes
let's tango, we tango
let the rhythm spin you
feel it deep within you
let's tango, let's tango

let's tango
we tango
you and me tango!
tango! tango!

i ....
trace your figure in the darkness
your bodyheat
breathing deep in danger

wrap your fingertips
'round the back of my neck
your eyes shut tight
my cigarette
tastes sweet
heartbeat heartbeat
you and i begin
to tango skin to skin

CHORUS
whisper 'til we scream
our shadows in the moonbeam
let's tango, we tango
surrender your alarm
and fall into my arms
let's tango, let's tango,

let's tango
we tango
you and me tango!
tango! tango!

BRIDGE
when the rhythm's real slow
and our bodies feel close
you wanna put your mouth on mine----wanna put your mouth on mine
feel the drama rise
look deep into my eyes

CHORUS

Terence Trent D'Arby "This side of Love"

This song could probably be sung by every one of Selena's lovers!

We're on the negative side of love
I'm subject to all bizarre whims she fancies
I'm running escape to find the handle
Of the door she locks me up in
She's on the laughing side of sin
What have I done in all my past lives
(To end up on) This side of love?

We're on a permanent twist of fate
She has dominion over time and torture
I'm pinching myself to convince me that
I'm in a living nightmare
The killer attraction of a dare
What have I done, emasculation
(To end up on) This side of love?

If I should stay (will the beat go on?)
I must be strong (we tell you every day)
Will I return (to normal lovers again?)
Please peel my skin ('cause my soul is burning)

We're on a roundabout whirl of scorn
The demons are smiling and the angels snoring
I feel like a stepchild Caeser that's been
Beaten and bruised to please her
Wearing a rusted ring of thorns
What have I done to piss the Gods off
(To end up on) This side of love?

If I should stay (will the beat go on?)
I must be strong (we tell you every day)
Will I return (to normal lovers again?)
Please peel my skin ('cause your soul is burning)

We're on the negative side of love
I see my condition as a sign of service
I'll snuggle up close to her knowing
That I'm practicing my religion
Warming the barrel of a gun

This will be the deed that finds me next time

(on this side of)
(on this side of)
(on this side of) This side of love

TLC "Red Light Special"

Well, the lyrics say everything...

Take a good look at it
Look at it now
Might be the last time you'll
Have a go round
I'll let you touch it if you'd
Like to go down
I'll let you go further
If you take the southern route
Don't go too fast
Don't go too slow
You've got to let your body flow
I like 'em attentive
And I like 'em in control

Baby it's yours
All yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours
All yours
If you want it tonight
Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light

I know that you want me I can
See it in your eyes
You might as well be honest 'cause the
Body never lies
Tell me your secrets and I'll
I'll tell you mine
I'm feelin' quite sexy
And I want you for tonight
If I move too fast just let me know
'Cause it means you move too slow
I like some excitement
And I like a man that goes

Baby it's yours...

If you want me
Let me know it
I'll make time but
You've got to show it
If you need me
I want to see
But don't mistake me
I don't want you down on your knees
I need someone a real man
I need someone who understands
I'm a woman a real woman
I know just what I want
I know just who I am

Baby it's yours...

Foreigner "Urgent"

What do you suppose Lucas thinks about Selena and her occasional other lovers?

You're not shy you get around
You wanna fly
Don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up you won't come down
You wanna live
You wanna move to the sound

Got fire in your veins
Burning hot
But you don't feel the pain
Your desire is insane
You can't stop
until you do it again

Well sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
Maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know yes I know how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

You say it's urgent
So urgent
So oh-oh urgent
Just wait and see
How urgent a love can be
It's urgent

You play tricks on my mind
You're everywhere
But you're so hard to find
You're not warm you're sentimental
You're so extreme
You can be so temperamental

But I'm not looking for a love that last
I know what I need and I need it fast
Yeah there's one thing in common that we both share
That's a need for each other anytime, anywhere

It gets so urgent
So urgent
You know it's urgent
I wanna tell you it's the same with me
So oh-oh urgent
Just you wait and see how urgent a love can be
It's urgent

You say it's urgent
Make it fast make it urgent
Do it quick do it urgent
Gotta watch make it urgent
Want it quick make it urgent urgent emergency
Urgent urgent emergency
Urgent urgent urgent urgent emergency
Urgent urgent urgent urgent emergency
So urgent
Emergency
