For another Leonard Cohen reference, perhaps a portion of “Coming Back to You” applies:
Even in your arms I know
I’ll never get it right
Even when you bend to give me
Comfort in the night
Well, note that I said “at the time of its recording” (which was 1935).
But you’re right that the very first issue of the alternate take of “Shave 'em Dry” was on the LP you referenced, and it was released in 1976. So it is possible that The Stones could have copped the line “you make a dead man come” from it.
I thought Janis Joplin’s “Down on Me” was, but now I’m not so sure.
“Chewing Gum” by Norwegian pop singer Annie has to be one.
Yeah, I know.
Only link I found http://planetandepoch.com/?p=742 says it refers to analingus
but it appears to be tongue in cheek.
OK, I misunderstood you to be saying that it hadn’t been released at the time “Start Me Up” was recorded.
Winner (bolding mine).
I was hoping someone would catch that.
If artificially givers of oral sex count, then Zappa’s “Ms. Pinky” is a good one.
Red Light Special - TLC
Maybe Prince’s “Cream”:
“Cream, you will cop”
“you got the horn so why don’t you blow it”
BTW Guns ‘n’ Roses’ Axl Rose’s name is an anagram for “oral sex”.
It’s also an anagram for “sear lox,” which is bad culinary advice.
Sabre Dance- Aram Khachaturian.
Springsteen’s Red Headed Woman
*Well listen up stud
Your life’s been wasted
Til you’ve got down on your knees and tasted
A red headed woman
A red headed woman
It takes a red headed woman
To get a dirty job done*
90’s R&B classic ‘Downtown’ by SWV, amusing video to it as well
Amanda Ruth by Rank and File:
She burned the biscuits and her gravy is strange
Can’t fry a chicken in a microwave range
Her salt’s tasty
Her sugar’s sweet
No she can’t cook but she’s got something to eat
…and the similarly-themed New Age Girl by Deadeye Dick:
She don’t eat meat
(but she sure likes the bone)
