Or Randy Newman’s ‘Drop the Big One, Now’.
“Gimmme Back My Bullets”
Misunderstood from day one. The bullets referred to are the layout bullets on the Billboard Top 100 chart.
From day one people started throwing bullets on state when they played the song live so they took it out of the set list.
Thank you, I am sure that would never be released today.
He Hit Me and It Felt Like a Kiss
He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new,
And when I told him I had been untrue
He hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
And I knew he loved me
If he didn't care for me
I could have never made him mad
But he hit me,
And I was glad
Yes, he hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
And I knew I loved him
And then he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is,
And when he kissed me,
He made me his
I love this song by Dan Reeder - very very politically incorrect in any era.
Uneasy Rider by Charlie Daniels.
“”Well he’s a friend of them long haired, hippy-type, pinko fags!
I betchya he’s even got a commie flag
Tacked up on the wall inside of his garage.”
Great country song “when I say ‘no’ I mean ‘maybe’ and maybe I mean yes.”
See my explanation at 176.
Don’t know about “inappropriate”, but prolly the stupidest lyrics. ever.
I always think of the movie "The Commitments" when the guy was in the Confessional:
Steve Clifford: When I studied I would sing hymns, but now all I can sing is "When A Man Loves A Woman" by Marvin Gaye
Father Molloy: Percy Sledge.
Steve Clifford: What?
Father Molloy: It was Percy Sledge did that particular song. I have the album.
Steve Clifford: Oh...
flr
I saw it after I posted, thanks. Poor ‘ole Tim!
“The Knack - My Sharrona and Good Girls Don’t”
My mother bought me that album for my ninth birthday. There is a song on the LP called “She’s so Selfish”. If you haven’t heard the song, I’ll let you figure out what he meant by “selfish”, lol. The language was also pretty strong. Honestly, It was a pretty filthy song.
Fortunately, my mother had no clue and didn’t pay attention to the lyrics. My friends and I would listen to the album and giggle.
There was a disco song called “In the Bush”.
I hope I don’t need to explain that one. Although, since I was so young when it came out, I was a bit confused as to what they meant.
It would be inaccurate today
It was the 80’s but Deep Purple had a single called “Knocking at Your Back Door”.
Yep.
Well you never heard it on mainstream radio in the 70s right up to today but at parties back then we played the Rolling Stones Star Star and sang along loudly to it. :)
Oh Lord, that song was/is terribly naughty. The Stones were so raunchy, I don’t see how they got some of these songs on their albums. I realize they muddled it somewhat but I could tell clearly what they were saying from the first time I heard that song.
A lot of people don’t notice or pay attention to lyrics, until pointed out to them.
I fully expect Brown Sugar to be one of the first Stones songs to soon be banned from radios once articles like this spread the knowledge of what’s in it.
