Mama's Got a Double Entendre

February 5, 2009 2:49 PM

What modern song lyrics contain the best -- the cleverest, filthiest, most sustained -- sexual innuendo?

Kids these days get a fair number of overt, direct songs like "Love in This Club" (Usher) -- there are others that are far dirtier that I can't recall at the moment -- and an occasional song like "If You Seek Amy" (Britney) that are more subtle, but basically one joke.

I can think of a few earlier songs, like "Squeezebox" (The Who), that are rather more elaborate, but I am trying to keep an open mind. What are the best (defined on main page as "the cleverest, filthiest, most sustained" -- but really, I'm most after subversive slyness and hilarity) from days gone by, or current stuff? My main interest is in post-WWII, esp. rock and blues; popular songs preferred.

Clumsy and awful, as points of contrast, would hardly be unwelcome.

Thanks!

P.S. I assumed this has been asked before, but the only general inquiries I could find had to do with bad and creepy songs, which aren't my main . . . err, thrust.

Would something like She bop qualify?
It may be obvious, but I was an oblivious adolescent because I did not get it when it was released.

And Squeezebox is about an accordian. Really.right?

ZZ Top - Almost every song has some innuendo there. Tube Snake Boogie, Pearl Necklace.

AC DC - They seem to have an abnormal infatuation with balls.

Dirty World by the Traveling Wilburys is sort of a goof on the whole concept of a song full of wry sexual innuendo.
posted by kid_dynamite at 2:58 PM on February 5

Well, it might not be terribly modern, but if you want innuendo then look no further than Kenneth Williams' songs. No other man I've heard is able to imbue words that don't actually mean anything with such suggestiveness.

Nick Lowe's "Dose of You" and "Switchboard Susan" -- both available on Labour of Lust, one of the single greatest albums of its era, inexplicably out of print -- are both amusingly dirty little ditties ("Now when I look at you girl I get an extension / And I don't mean on Alexander Graham Bell's invention / Switchboard Susan can we be friends / After six and at weekends ").

Mighty Sparrow also has a song called "Mango Vert." Sample lyrics:

When I feel your finger on my trigger,
Happiness is a warm gun
-----------------
Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
-----------------
...you can see it you can taste it, and she comes to you light as the breeze. Now you can drink it, or you can nurse it, it don't matter how you worship as long as you're down on your knees. So I knelt there at the Delta at the Alpha, the Omega, at the cradle where the river meets the sees, and like a blessing come from heaven for something like a second I was healed and my heart was at ease.
-----------------
I've never felt so good before This empty place inside of me is filling up I simply cannot get enough I want it, oh, I want it Oh, I want it for my own I've got to know I've got to know What is this place that I have found? What's this‽
-----------------
Sweet little Princess, let me introduce his frogness
You alone can get him singing,
He's all puffed up, wanna be your king
Oh, you can do it, c'mon, c'mon
Lady kiss that frog
-----------------
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends

I want to be your sledgehammer
-----------------
Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Ohhh-oh summer wine

HonorShadow above mentions F.*.*.*. by Bloodhoud Gang. I think their song Bad Touch would count, too. Admittedly the chorus is pretty explicit, "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals so let's do it like they do on the discovery channel", but the verses have some amusing jokes, metaphors, and so on:

Love, the kind you clean up with a mop and bucket

Like the lost catacombs of Egypt only God knows where we stuck it.

Hieroglyphics? let me be specific I wanna be down in your South Seas

But I got this notion that the motion of your ocean means small craft advisory

I can't help you with filthy or sustained.

"Fido, your leash is too long" from 69 love songs (The Magnetic Fields):

Fido, your leash is too long You go where you don't belong
You've been diggin in the rubble getting bitches in trouble
Fido, your leash is too long Fido your leash is too long
I don't know where I went wrong You scare me out of my wits
when you do that Shitzu Fido, your leash is too long
Fido, you've gone far enough I must have all of your love
You've just run out of luck I don't care what you foxhounds do
but your leash is too long

How about "Let's pretend we're bunny rabbits":

If you knew how I long for you now that you're gone
you'd grow wings and fly home to me home tonight
and in the morning sun (C): let's pretend we're
bunny rabbits Let's do it all day long Let abbots,
Babbits and Cabots say Mother Nature's wrong
and when we've had a coupla beers we'll put on
bunny suits I long to nibble your ears and do
as bunnies do Let's pretend we're bunny rabbits
Let's do it all day long rapidly becoming rabid
singing little rabbit songs I can keep it up all night
I can keep it up all day Let's pretend we're bunny
rabbits until we pass away Let's pretend we're
bunny rabbits until we pass away

Sondheim's I Never Do Anything Twice" is definitely clever, dirty and sustained. Here's a sample:

And then there was the abbot
Who worshipped at my feet
Who dressed me in a wimple and in veils
He made a proposition which
I found rather sweet
And handed me a hammer and some nails

In time we lay contented
And he began again
By fingering the beads around our waists
I whispered to him then
We'll have to say amen
For I had developed more catholic tastes

And here's the rest.

I always liked this one, but I don't know if it rates very high on the scale compared to some of the above.

I rode my bicycle past your window last night
I roller skated to your door at daylight
It almost seems like you're avoiding me
I'm OK alone but you've got something I need, well

{Refrain}
I've got a brand new pair of roller skates
You've got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and
Try them on to see
I been lookin' around awhile
You got something for me
Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key

I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car
Don't go too fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don't drive, I been all around the world
Some people say I done all right for a girl

I asked your mother if you were at home
She said yes, but you weren't alone
Oh, sometimes I think that you're avoiding me
I'm OK alone but you got something I need, well

In my automobile
She said get out and spead your legs
And then she tried to cop a feel
That cop she was all dressed in blue
Was she pretty? Boy I'm tellin' you
She stuck my butt with her big black stick
I said "what's up?" now suck my dick
Like a ram getting ready to jam the lamb
She whimpered just a little when she felt my hand
On her crotch so very warm
I could feel her getting wet through her uniform
Proppin' her up on the black and white
Unzipped and slipped "ooo that's tight"
I swatted her like no swat team can
Turned a cherry pie right into jam

The best double entendre song I have ever heard: CW Stoneking with You Took My Thing & and Put It In Your Place.

Sample lyrics:

Woman: "Yeah, then it went all floppy"

Man: "And you wouldn't give him back"

Woman: "Oh, I love that frill-necked lizard, he was my good old friend"

Man: "All you ever done with him is send him round the bend.
I'm gonna call the cops, I know I got a case
Talking 'bout you took my thing and put it in your place, I mean put it in your place"

Believe it or not, he's actually not a 1920s American blues man. He's a 30-something Australian.

Some amazing finds here: thanks so much. I am especially excited by the ones for which a high number of devotees didn't have a clue, like "Sledgehammer."

There must be some genres that remain untapped. For example, those referring, in one way or another, to the virtues of (temporary) self-restraint -- e.g., Sam and Dave, Hold On (I'm Coming) (You talk to me/For satisfaction, oh, hold on/Call my name, oh, call my name yeah for quick reaction/Yeah yeah yeah yeah). [N.B. I am befuddled by the album titled "Waiting For My Rocket to Come," by the seemingly annoyingly earnest Jason Mraz.]

Also, for those interest in mining this vein (heh heh heh), R&B and blues had some incredible songs, like Bo Carter's All Around Man, Banana in Your Fruit Basket, Don't Mash My Digger So Deep, My Pencil Won't Write No More, Please Warm My Weiner . . . Or, for goodness' sake, Keep on Churnin' (Till the Butter Comes). (Note: adapted, and ruined, by the Starlight Vocal Band, semi-filthy purveyors of Afternoon Delight.) But they really do lose on the subtlety front.

"Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" -- Primus

Wynona's got herself a big brown beaver
and she shows it off to all her friends.
One day, you know, that beaver tried to leave her,
So she caged him up with cyclone fence.

Along came Lou with the old baboon
And said "Recognize that smell?"
"Smells like seven layers,
That beaver eats Taco Bell."

Now Rex he was a Texan out of New Orleans
And he travelled with the carnival shows.
He ran bumper cars, sucked cheap cigars
And he candied up his nose.

He got wind of the big brown beaver
So he though he'd take himself a peek,
But the beaver was quick
And grabbed him by the kiwis.
Now he ain't pissed for a week.
(And a half!)

Now Wynona took her big brown beaver,
And she stuck him up in the air.
Said "I sure do love this big brown beaver
And I wish I did have a pair."

Now the beaver onces slept for seven days
And it gave us all an awful fright.
So I tickled his chin and I gave him a pinch
And the bastard tried to bite me.

Wynona loved her big brown beaver
And she stroked him all the time.
She pricked her finger one day and it
Occurred to her she might have a porcupine.

And every thing you bring me
got me dripping like a honeycomb,
And if you've got some sugar for me,
Sugar Daddy, bring it home.

80's metal is just classic for this.
Warrant's Cherry Pie and the less-known Kix classic Get it while it's hot are my two favorites.

Solar Sex Panel by Little Village.

It's sort of three dimensional piece where John Hiatt makes sexual references, global warming/sustainability references and jokes about his bald spot all at once so that, sometimes, what sounds dirty isn't and, well vice versa.
