I remember posting about this once before also. Though I do think the music is fun, the lyrics had a sexual "schoolkid" naivete to them that, whatever the intention, did seem silly rather than depicting any sort of real awakening/adventure/danger. Yes, the girls are young and inexperienced, but they're not kids - and certainly neither are the men, though neither of them, IMO< is as mature as they see themselves. But however we see the characters, the lyrics just weren't right for the moment. (I think I also remember saying I felt the same about some of the stuff in Act II of Romance/Romance, which made these characters in their 30's seem more like high school kids at a party when mom and dad are away, lol.)
