about

I wrote this song for all the guys and girls in the world who have ever been cheated-on ... The story line is not completely autobiographical, but I have definitely been played for a fool more than once.

I made a fun video for this song that is posted on YouTube

LYRICS:

Tell It To Me Slowly (Tele-2-Me Slowly) 07/06/2019


VERSE:
The first time I got the feeling that things weren’t going right
You said you went out with your girlfriends but then you stayed out all night
You came home in the morning at a quarter past 8 AM
with a song and dance of a story that you could sell to MGM

CHORUS:
Tele-2-Me Slowly it’s such a complicated tale
You got a great imagination for a woman who’s looking so pale
Go on Tele-2-Me Slowly Take all the time you need
I always like a good story n’ to hear you plead

VERSE:
The other night you got a phone call that made you jump up and leave the room
You told me it was your friend Mary asking ‘bout some new perfume
But when you left your phone unlocked I called back and didn’t say a thing
A guy said, “Hello again, Baby” and he answered on the very first ring

CHORUS:
Just) Tele-2-Me Slowly whatever you want to say
And look me in the eye while you beg me to stay
Go on Tele-2-Me Slowly Take all the time you need
I like to watch you squirming I like to hear you plead

VERSE:
Tonight I found you, in the men’sroom with a Jackson rolled up in your nose
The guy cuddlin’ up behind you got his hands up under your clothes
He turned his head and looked at me then he took off like a shot
And when you saw me in the mirror, you seemed mighty distraught

CHORUS:
(Just) Tele-2-Me Slowly whatever you’re gonna say
And look me in the eye while you beg me to stay
Go on Tele-2-Me Slowly Take all the time you need
Then watch while I walk away and leave ya’ here to plead

Tele-2-Me Slowly and let me hear you cry
I’ll accept your apology ‘cuz I’m such a nice guy
But while you Tele-2-Me Slowly I’ll be walkin’ away
I don’t need a girl like you so have a nice day …
