What Parents Need to Know
About It Won't Be Soon Before Long
Parents need to know that the word "f--k" is sprinkled a few times in "Makes Me Wonder." The boys love to sing about sex, although most of the lyrics are poetic enough to pass as innocuous. They do cross the line a few times ("So give it up, and don't pretend/And spread your arms and legs across the bed/And when you shake, you won't regret" and "Struggled to memorize/The way it felt between your thighs/Pleasure that made you cry/Feels so good to be bad," for example). One song talks about catching someone cheating on someone and shooting the secret lover. The rest is pleasant, safe (if whiny), cute-boy pop.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the issue of romantic or sexual jealousy as described in the song "Wake Up Call." How do you handle feelings of jealousy, or breaking up with a girlfriend or boyfriend? Is it possible to get through the pain and become friends?

I was looking for maroon 5 on itunes, i wanted to buy the album untill i was listening to the song makes me wonder with my mom and we heard the Go- Da---- word! I Was shocked i heared The GD word,so my mom said i couldn't buy the album. I couldn't believe that there was any bad language in this album it said it was clean! Do not buy this album if you don't like to here bad language! Also there are stuff about sex. I don't think anyone should buy this CD...This album is not ok for kids!

sex is only issue
This band has greta music although adressing sex once and a while. Words like F*** are used, but hold no sexual perposes. Buy it and listen to it for the sound, not for the content.
