So I was listening to the song “Brick House” on my way to work this morning, and something has always bugged me about that song.
No, not that it’s a Commodores song and what was it doing in my ipod.
Well. Actually.
Yes.
But no.
The babe in question is supposed to be 36-24-36, right? But isn’t the song title taken from the expression “built like a brick shithouse?”
I don’t get it.
A brick shithouse is a very large rectangle. Meatloaf is built like a brick shithouse. Not a hot chick with a big rack and tiny waist.
I’m over-analyzing again, aren’t I?
I’ll go back to singing along.
But in my mind, Lionel Ritchie is totally singing about Meatloaf.
