On the fifth track from Madonna’s desire-fueled concept album Erotica, she sings slow, seductive verses to a lover over a relatively bare track. The majority of the lyrics are thinly veiled metaphors for cunnilingus.
Where Life Begins Lyrics
[Intro]
Warm inside
Yeah
[Verse 1]
I'd like to direct your attention
To something that needs directing to
A lot of people talk about dining in and eating out
I guess that's what this song's about
I know this is not a dining room conversation
And you don't have to listen if you don't have the time
But let me remind you in case you don't already know
Dining out can happen down below
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's talking 'bout
Wanting that and needing this
I'd just like to know
If you want to learn a different kind of kiss
[Chorus]
So won't you go down where it's warm inside?
Go down where I cannot hide
Go down where all life begins
Go down
That's where my love is
[Verse 2]
Now what could be better than a home cooked meal?
How you want to eat it depends on how you feel
You can eat all you want and you don't get fat
Now where else can you go for a meal like that?
It's not fair to be selfish and stingy
Every girl should experience eating out
Sometimes when I come home from a hard day at work
I swear it's all I can think about
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's talking 'bout
Wanting that and needing this
I'd just like to know
If you want to learn a different way to kiss
[Chorus]
So won't you go down where it's warm inside?
Go down where I cannot hide
Go down where all life begins
Go down
That's where my love is
[Verse 3]
Colonel Sanders says it best
"Finger licking good"
Let's put what you've learned to the test
Can you make a fire without using wood?
Are you still hungry? Aren't you glad we came?
I'm glad you brought your raincoat
I think it's beginning to rain
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's talking 'bout
Wanting that and needing this
I'd just like to know
If you want to learn a different way to kiss
[Chorus]
So won't you go down where it's warm inside?
Go down where I cannot hide
Go down where all life begins
Go down
That's where my love is
Where it's warm inside
Go down where I cannot hide
Go down where all life begins
Go down
That's where my love is
[Outro]
That's where my love is
Come inside
That's where all life begins
It's warm inside
