> [@TonySinclair](#): > > Beatles - I’ll Get You (in the end) Oh, yeah! (Actually, never thought of that — ha!) “Day Tripper” is, as John said in an interview, about weekend hippies with white-collar jobs during the week, and the “trip” can be deemed lysergic, automotive, or just metaphorical. ---

There was a whole genre of double entendre blues, some more “double” than others. For example there’s [Kitchen Man](https://youtu.be/WSOYDm8ftIY) And I’m sure anyone who’s struggled with “self-assembly” furniture will agree with [this number by Barrelhouse Annie.](https://youtu.be/8B4in0q4cUs) ---

One of my favorites songs overall; Deep Purple’s _Knocking at Your Back Door_. The (not so hidden) meaning just makes it that much better. ---

Is “Wynonna’s Big Brown Beaver” by Primus a double entendre song? Because it sure does it’s best to make you think it is, then adds so much nonsense it’s not clear the song is about anything at all. ---

Practically anything by AC/DC, except for the few songs they don’t pretend to hide the meaning. Also, most songs by the greatest AC/DC cover band, Krokus. Just by listening alone, wouldn’t you say [this is AC/DC?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7_7COXa1yQ) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-double-entendre-songs/807265.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-double-entendre-songs/807265.md?page=3)
