Went completely over my head as a kid:

I wanna know, just what to do
Is it very big, is there room for two?
I got a house with windows and doors
I'll show you mine if you show me yours

Catchy tune though...

Who would have known that Gary Glitter's 'My Gang' was about the paedophile ring he was the overlord of..

Brenda Ann Spencer (born April 3, 1962) is a convicted American murderer who carried out a shooting spree from her home in San Diego, California, on January 29, 1979. During the shooting spree, she killed two people and injured nine others at Cleveland Elementary School, which was located across the street from her home. Spencer showed no remorse for her crime, and her full explanation for her actions was "I don't like Mondays; this livens up the day,", which inspired the song "I Don't Like Mondays" by The Boomtown Rats. The song was a UK number one single for four weeks in mid-1979.

only found this out recently, I thought it was an innocent song...

Niles

Though perhaps not an "innocent" song, I remember our teachers let us dance to this in primary school, presumably unaware of the lyrics...

cloptrop

You say it best when you say nothing at all.
This was Ronon Keatings way of making his missus think he was singing a song for her , but also letting his dancer bit on the side know that he hated listenin to his missus and loved it when she shut her yapper.

This makes him a musical genius and obviously more talented than the gay westlife fella that cant hold onto his boyfriend cause he dumped him , Ronon would never get dumped.

Song like these have ruined our innocence to songs like this..

Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
oooh I'm on fire

Tell me now baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
oooh I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife
baby edgy and dull
and cut a six inch valley
through the middle of my soul

At night I wake up with the sheets
soaking wet and
a freight train running
through the middle of my head -
only you can cool my desire

oooh I'm on fire......

The song is about a man who wakes up with night sweats lusting for a woman - he feels like he's on fire when he suddenly awakes. Springsteen writes using the voice of many different characters, and they often have some kind of unpleasant ordeal to endure.

It took me a fair while to realise the song was about

a young guy getting off with a transvestite

Ah yes, another little gem from the 90s! That did the rounds in primary school too, even though one could get in serious trouble for looking up the "s word" in the dictionary... the only song I remember us not being allowed listen to was South Park's "Mr Hankey" song, leading our principal to say this immortal line: "I don't want to hear anymore about that disgusting song about poo!". Not something you hear everyday.

(Controversial because some people interpreted the meaning of the song as about paedophilia and feelings towards a teenage girl. Suggestions which Van morrison was disgusted by.)
Well, I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
Caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue

And I'm conquered in a car seat
Not a thing that I can do
I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill

I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill
But my heart keeps beating faster
And my feet can't keep still

And all the little girls rhyme something
On the way back home from school
And all the little girls rhyme something
On the way back home from school

And the leaves fall one by one
And call the autumn time a fool

Yeah, my t-tongue gets tied
Every, every, every time I try to speak
My tongue gets tied
Every time I try to speak

And my inside shakes just like a leaf on a tree
I think I'll go on by the river with my cherry, cherry wine
I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine
If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine

Wait a minute, yonder come my lady
Rainbow ribbons in her hair
Yonder come my lady
Rainbow ribbons in her hair

Six white horses and a carriage
She's returning from the fair
Baby, baby, baby

And I'm caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
And if I'm, yeah, caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue

And I'm conquered in a car seat
And I'm looking straight at you

Way up on, way up on, way up on
The avenue of trees

Keep walking down
In the wind and the rain, darling
You keep walking down when the sun shone through the trees

Nobody, no, no, no, no, nobody stops me from loving you baby
So young and bold, fourteen-year old
Baby, baby, baby

Great song, on the subject of paedophilia, how about a song explicitly about having a threesome ith 2 15yo groupies

I'm not sure that's meant to be rude. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that it's just a collection of words that don't actually mean anything; like the ramblings of a simpleton with a type of Tourette's that causes them to shout out random statements and questions.

Here's something from stalkery Sting:

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Spice Girls "Two become One"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M9cSez-mY4

Back when this was released, I was a teenager, and most of the girl/boy band songs seemed pretty innocuous. In fact, I do think some of the SpiceGirl songs are pretty childish, but not the words of this one!


Candlelight and soul forever
Dream of you and me together
Say you believe it say you believe it
Free your mind of doubt and danger
be for real don't be a stranger
We can achieve it we can achieve it
Come a little bit closer baby
Get it on get it on
'cause tonight is the night
When 2 become 1

I need some love like I've never needed love before
Wanna make love to ya baby
I had a little love now I'm back for more
Wanna make love to ya baby
Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

Silly games that you were playing
Empty words we both were saying
Let's work it out boy, let's work it out boy
Once again if we endevour
Love would bring us back together
Take it or leave it, take it or leave it
Are you as good as I remember baby?
Get it on, Get it on
'cause tonight, is the night,
When 2 become 1

I need some love like I've never needed love before
Wanna make love to ya baby
I had a little love, now I'm back for more
Wanna make love to ya baby
Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

Be a little bit wiser baby,
Put it on, put it on
'cause tonight is the night
When 2 become 1....

Have you ever heard the Spanish version of that song? Doesn't mention "love" at all...

"Si decides dejarme
No te voy a suplicar
Allá tú sí mas tarde
Aunque corras te escondas
No puedes escapar"

Which translates roughly to:
"If you decide to leave me,
I'm not going to beg you
Off you go, but later
even if you run and hide
You can't escape" :eek:

The Vapors - Turning Japanese.

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I wrote "me too"
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do
Oh it's in color Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you all round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese

I think I'm turning Japanese

I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
That's why I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

I think I'm turning Japanese

Afternoon Delight

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some Afternoon Delight
My motto's always been "When it's right, it's right."
Why wait until the middle of a cold, dark night?

When everything's a little clearer in the light of day?
And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway?

Thinkin of you's working up my appetite
Lookin' forward to a little Afternoon Delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together make the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Skyrockets in flight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!

Started out this morning feeling so polite,
I always thought a fish could not be caught that didn't bite.
But you got some bait a-waiting and I think I might
Like nibblin' a little Afternoon Delight
Skyrockets in flight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!

Be waiting for me, baby, when I come around.
We can make a lot of lovin' 'fore the sun goes down

Thinkin' of you's workin' up a' appetite
Lookin' forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together make the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting

Skyrockets in flight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!
Afternoon Delight!

Afternoon Delight!

(A madrigal fugue)

Pour Some Sugar on Me - Def Leppard


Step inside, walk this way
You and me babe, Hey, hey!

Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah

Hey!
C'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah

Listen! red light, yellow light, green-a-light go!
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up

You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little
Tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
Give a little more

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough

I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah


You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
'cause I'm hot, say what, sticky sweet
From my head, my head, to my feet

Do you take sugar? one lump or two?

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me

I know! First time I heard it was when a teacher brought us a few of his Spanish ones to translate in Transition Year (those were the days :P) and we were all SURE we'd mistranslated...

And yet all the Spaniards happily sing along to it!

StupidLikeAFox

How has this not been mentioned? The chorus sings over and over "E's are good, E's are good/ These effin E's are good" and the rest of the lyrics are a thinly veiled description of ecstacy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPzv_EwxMl0

There's a guy in the place
He's got a bittersweet face
And he goes by the name of Ebeneezer Goode
His friends call him Eezer and he is the main geezer
And he'll vibe about the place
Like no other man could
He's refined, sublime, he makes you feel fine
Though very much maligned and misunderstood
But if you know Eezer he's a real crowd pleaser
He's ever so good, he's Ebeneezer Goode
You can see that he's mysterious,
Mischievious and devious
As he circulates amongst the people in the place
But once you know he's fun
And something of a genius
He gives a grin that grows around
From face to face to face
Backwards and then forwards,
Forwards and then backwards
Eezer is the geezer who loves to muscle in
That's about the time the crowd
All shout the name of Eezer
As he's kotcheled in the corner,
Laughing by the bass bin

Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode

Has anybody got any veras?
Lovely
Ya ha ha ha ha ha
Ya ha ha ha ha ha
A great philosopher once wrote
"Naughty naughty very naughty"
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ebeneezer Goode, leading light of the scene
Know what I mean - see
He created the vibe,
He takes you for a ride and as if by design
The party ignites like he's comin alive
He takes you to the top, shakes you all around
Then back down, you know as he gets mellow
Then as smooth as the groove
That is making you move
He glides into your mind with a sunny "Hello!"
A gentleman of leisure,
He's there for your pleasure
But go easy on old Eezer
He's the love you could lose
Extraordinary fellow, like Mr. Punchinello
He's the kind of geezer who must never be abused
When you're in town and Ebeneezer is around
You can sense a presence
In the sound of the crowd
He gets them all at it, the party starts rocking
The people get excited it's time to shout loud

Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode

Ya ha ha ha
Ya ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha
Wicked

Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode

He's Ebeneezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
Eezer Goode, Eezer Goode
He's Ebeneezer Goode

Well the family thought the song was innocent...

mikeyboy

Bryan Adams has said the title is nothing to do with the year (he was only 10 in 1969) but actually refers to a particular *AHEM* intimate activity

EdenHazard

Theres an Avril Lavigne song and in it she says i wanna blow you..... away and also see you go down on one knee(ok shes a girl but in it i used to think she said on me..mayb she uses dildos

Bruthal

Chain reaction seems to have a few x rated lyrics, especially in the 3rd verse.
