Guys, English is not my native language, so I would like to consult you on this. I have the following lines in a song of mine:
We'll have some sessions you'll make concessions and we'll be in and out
What does the third line here mean? I wrote it to mean "It will only take a minute", but is that what is understood here?
Perhaps I am just paranoid because the song is about a 'talent scout' propositioning a young girl to appear in an adult video. God knows why I am writing about this; I was playing some melody and this is what I started singing. Sick.

Sounsd like an adult video to me.
Is that your intention or not. Double meanings are a cool device. As long as you're in control of the meanings.

"What does the third line here mean?" Google "the old in and out" and you'll catch on.
I think I saw the movie your song is based on.

Why can't you just use, "It'll only take a minute"? Unless, of course, you need to use the "in and out" line because you're rhyming something with "out." When all else fails, here's an online rhyming dictionary: www.rhymezone.com/?loc=bar

I like the double entendre angle of it, in light of the topic of the song.
