I remember a song, possibly a reggae song, about a fellow who was so broke he was going to have to sell the pussy…cat.
I’ve tried and tried to think of some clever musical innuendo.
But all I could come up with were a bunch of musical dim innuendos.
Really? Is that why your handle is the name of a helicopter traffic reporter in L. A.? 'Cause you’re from the South Bay?
Huh.
There’s a traffic reporter with my handle? I’m astonished and no, that’s not why.
Muscle of Love and Feed My Frankenstein, both Alice Cooper. I’m late for work or I’d throw up a lyric or two.
Perhaps these are a little too straight-forward for innuendo but . . .
One of my favorite songs of all time is Sixty Minute Man by The Dominoes, which came out in 1951. Some of the lyrics:
Look here girls I’m telling you now
They call me “Lovin’ Dan”
I rock 'em, roll 'em all night long
I’m a sixty-minute man. . .
There’ll be 15 minutes of kissing
Then you’ll holler “please don’t stop”
There’ll be 15 minutes of teasing
And 15 minutes of squeezing
And 15 minutes of blowing my top
If your man ain’t treating you right
Come up and see ol’ Dan
I rock 'em, roll 'em all night long
I’m a sixty-minute man
Then there’s the great Delbert McClinton’s Never Been Rocked Enough:
I don’t pull no punch
I don’t play no games
It ain’t none of my business
But it seems a shame
Now I can’t hold back
I got to speak my mind
You look like a woman
That needs a real good time
You’ve been over here in the dark so long
I ain’t no doctor, but I know what’s wrong…
You never been rocked enough
You never been rolled just right
You act tense and nervous
Honey, you’re too uptight
You never been rocked enough
You never been rolled just right
My time is your time baby
And baby I’ve got all night
No one’s mentioned **The Joker ** by Steve Miller Band yet?
*You’re the cutest thing
That I ever did see
I really love your peaches
Want to shake your tree *
Ice Cream Man* by Van Halen:
Candye Kane does a number of risque songs. My personal favorite is All you can eat and you can eat it all night long, which is about a greasy spoon diner. Kinda.
Wow, can’t believe nobody’s mentioned “One More Minute” by Weird Al:
I guess I might seem kind of bitter
You’ve got me feeling down in the dumps
'cause I’m stranded all alone at the gas station of love
And I have to use the self service pumps!
My Ding-A-Ling pales in comparison to the less subtle Reelin’ & Rockin’ - especially side by side on the live “London Sessions” album.
Favorite:
“You’re the cutest thing that I ever did see/Really love your peaches, want to shake your tree.” Steve Miller.
Mmmm, peaches.
“The Ballad of Dick and Jane” by Pinkard & Bowden. It starts with a “disclaimer”. The boys ramble on about how some people come to comedy show to hear “blue” material, and well, we don’t do blue material, we try to keep it clean and innocent and what could be more pure and innocent than a song about Dick & Jane, from the first grade reader?
There were three young men who fell in love with Jane
Tom, Dick and Harry were their names
“I am her only boyfriend!” each of them would boast
But she passed on Tom and Harry, 'cause she liked Dick the most
Now she’s got Dick in the palm of her hand
She likes to hold Dick
She likes to squeeze Dick
She likes to kiss Dick all of the time
Seems like Dick is always on her mind
When you’re in love with a beautiful woman it’s hard.
If you want something that’s not at all subtle, there’s the original lyrics to Tutti Frutti.
That is more what I was looking for in the OP. Many songs today come out and say what they mean, but I love the ones that wink and nod about it. One more example… The Cramps(Can Your Pussy do the Dog?)
Rolling Stones, Honky Tonk Women has one of my favorite “What, exactly, is going on here?” lines. “She blew my nose, and then she blew my mind.”
But I vote with AC/DC’s Big Balls as the winner.
“Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress. But the ones that are held for pleasure are the ones that I like best…”
