Another Robbie Williams Discussion Forum aka The Dotmusic Revival Forum

Since a few of you only got the song recently, I thought I'd post what we worked out regarding the lyrics on the 'old' lyrics board. Here it comes.

Right. I'll get to the lyrics that touched my soul a bit later. This is the song that I couldn't understand completely.
The first verse I got right, I don't get all of the chorus (the part with teeth) and the second verse (the backing vocals).

Maybe if we had a decent recording, we'd know. But still - any ideas?

Well, first of all, the song is called 'Wimmin' and not 'Women', hehe.
But as for the lyrics... pass.
Why don't you start posting what you have and we'll see what we can make of it?

If it helps, we figured it all out on dotmusic together a long time ago. Probably some of it's wrong, (I think the second line is written in SS book, but I haven't compared and fixed it) but we got:
Daddy didn't love you let me give you validation
That's it, that's nice, no class, no conversation
And in school you got picked on for being a geek
What a wonderful woman you turned out to be

I love women I love women everybody
I like to get my teeth into you
I think it's time I got myself a supermodel
I never lived till I got ya

You said you dabbled when your parents separated
That's the class that's the point that's the batch of the operator
Oh daddy dear look what you did to your daughter
She's got an eating disorder

I love women I love women everybody
I like to get my beef into you
I think it's time I got myself a supermodel
I never lived till I got ya

Oh baby pull my heaven to you
We love you for who you are
A disco queen, a wrecking machine

Okkk....
I thought the second line was...

Nice tits, nice ass, no class, no conversation

and the last line of the chorus was...

I haven't had one of those yet

Not sure about the teeth thought. LOL.

Yeah, those two changes sound much more right!
Teeth yeah, but definitely not a T sound in the second chorus. "Beef" seems a bit obvious, but ... well ... it is our Rob. Heheheheh.

And isn't it: "Oh baby dear what happened to you, we love you for who you are..."

hi every1!
my contribution:
isn't it "I think it's time I FOUND myself a supermodel" - what do you think about it?
btw, these last two lines of the chorus, rob and guy sing them on the RAH vid, don't they, in a different style, though?!

For what it is worth here is my interpretation of the lyrics - this is what I have been singing along with anyway!
Women

Your Daddy didn't love you let me give you validation
Nice tits, nice arse, no class, no conversation
And in school you got picked on for being a geek
What a wonderful woman you turned out to be

I’ve got women I love women every Friday
I like to get my feet wet and teeth wet
I think it's time I found myself a supermodel
I haven’t had one of those yet

You said you did well when your parents separated
Lots of drugs, lots of clothes, lots of guys a real operator
Oh daddy dear look what you did to your daughter
She's got an eating disorder

I’ve got women I love women every Friday
I like to get my feet wet and teeth wet
I think it's time I found myself a supermodel
I haven’t had one of those yet

Oh baby blue what happened to you
We love you for who you are
A disco queen, a wrecking machine
Gonna ah, Oh oh ah, Oh-ah Oh-ah

chorus x2

Mind you, I'm not really sure what he means by "getting his feet wet and teeth wet" - ar am I just being naive!!

Lots of drugs, lots of clothes, lots of guys a real operator
First part's right. Well done! But I don't think it's "lots of guys a real operator". Something like "lots of packs to the operating". I know that doesn't make any English sense, but that's the sounds I'm getting.

Teeth wet and feet wet

On closer listen, it does sound like there's another 'et' sound at the end, not "into you". Maybe it's "into it"?

Poppy which version of Wimmin are you listening to??
I have two versions now and for one of them, your lyrics sound perfect - even the feet bit!!!
And it definitely sounds like 'you did well when you're parents separated'.
Haha, and it DOES sound like 'I got women I love women every Friday' hahahahaha.

I guess the lyrics to this song will remain unsolved...

and the rest... Date Posted: 05-01-2003 18:06:37

There are two versions? I thought the only version around was live from Hamburg, which sounds pretty crappy and it's hard to make out what anyone's saying. Can you send me the other version?

jess gb said:

i've only got one version too. where did the second one come from?! lol. would you mind sending it to me too? my emails: jess_gb@hotmail.com

KiwiChick said:

Wow, where's that other version from?

brokeblonde said:

It's from Berlin

jess gb said:

thanks very much for sending it i love it!

Vlatka said:

The Berlin version is much clearer. I agree though - it's probably gonna be the unsolved mystery with this one.

here they are, copied and pasted....
Wimmin

If your daddy didn’t love you let me give you validation.
(Nice tits, nice ass, no class, or conversation).
And at school you got picked on for being a geek.
(What a wonderful woman you grew up to be).

I like wimmin, I go wimmin every Friday.
I like to get my feet wet, my teeth wet.
I think it’s time I found myself a supermodel,
I haven’t had one of those yet.

You say you dealt well when your parents separated.
(Lots of drugs, lots of boys, lots of battery operated...)
Oh daddy dear, look what you did to your daughter,
She’s got an eating disorder.

I like wimmin, I go wimmin every Friday.
I like to get my feet wet, my teeth wet.
I think it’s time I found myself a supermodel,
I haven’t had one of those yet.

Oh baby blue what happened to you?
We love you for who you are.
A disco-queen, home wrecking machine,
Go to work...

I like wimmin, I go wimmin every Friday.
I like to get my feet wet, my teeth wet.
I think it’s time I found myself a supermodel,
I haven’t had one of those yet.
