Well, off the top of my head… **Ride the Pony** **She’s Tight** both by **Cheap Trick** Gee, I think nearly every song written by Rick Nielson references sex in some way. But those are my “favorites”. ---

Ukulele Ike, I think Aerosmith did a cover of Big Ten Inch. Is that close enough? Is it even the same song? ---

Hmph. It figures that the first song that came to mind for me was: _I Touch Myself_ by the DiVinyls I’ve been alone too long. ---

One of my favorites is a song that no one at all seems to realize is about sex: “Chestnut Mare” by the Byrds What do you think they meant by singing in the chorus “She’ll be just like a wife,” anyway? 🙂 Seriously, the lyrics speak about landing right on top of her, riding her, seeing a snake standing up and ready to strike (now what can that represent?), flying (a fairly common metaphor), landing in a splash of water, and vowing to ride her again one day. If you think that’s just talking about a horse, you lead a very sheltered life. 🙂 Other favorites about the subject: “Kama Sutra” by the Bonzo Dog Band “Mr. Skin” by Spirit “Let’s Do It” and “Let’s Misbehave” by Cole Porter “Guys are Not Proud” by the Anemic Boyfriend It’s been mentioned, but “Paradise by the Dashboard Light” is a true classic. ---

back in the days of old time radio, often we would hear a song, **June Is Busting Out All Over** , which I remember was about the changing seasons rather than about a girl named June, but I also remember that Charlie McCarthy shared the more sexual interpretation of that title; I still laugh when I think of it. to answer the question seriously: Hungry Like The Wolf - Duran Duran Thinking About Sex Again - The Waitresses and following those, Max Don’t Have Sex With Your Ex - ??? ---

I nominate “Turning Japanese,” which is about whacking off, by the best one-hit wonders ever, The Vapors. I also seem to remember that Barnes and Barnes – they of “Fish Heads” fame – did a song which noted, “Wouldn’t it be so WON-derful if you were to touch yourself? I’d like to take a PHO-tograph of you as you touch yourself.” And, yes, those DiVinyls … ---
