If that's how you feel, you missed my point. I am not advocating censorship anywhere, just saying it would be nice if people listened to the lyrics. Plus, my son is two. When he is in the room, I am dictated by what a two year old can handle. It's called parenting.

Agreed. I am pro free speech. My 7 year old called me out yesterday for saying "soap words" while watching College ball.(soap words meaning having Ivory Liquid squirted in my mouth and told to keep it there until sufficient time had passed in my misspent youth).We currently use that as an effective "threat".
Me:"Sunnuvab---h..what the hell kind of a play was that?!?Stupid a-- play....stu-pid..dumb!" Son: "Dad, you're saying soap words again."
Me: "Yeah, I know...but who the hell throws an interception on the 2 yard line...dumba-- play...."
Years after the soap thing,and my Parents were after me about the yard, or my room or whatever, I would walk up to the line and look at it by singing snippets of Lou Reed....as done by Bill Murray/Carl Spackler "HEY HUN-NAY...take a walk on the wild side...and the colored girls go doot-de-doot-de-doot-de-doot-doot...
Fortunately (for me)....I never sang any other part of that song to them.

Your two year old (or pretty much any 6-year old) has no grasp of what sexual double entendre is. I promise.

He does. however, repeat things at random. The other day I said "curses!" which he repeated for about ten minutes. Just what I need is sometime in the middle of church "baby chow down!" coming from my kid.

A guy who worked for me got in all KINDS of trouble over that. One night, he walked up behind his wife who was doing dishes and started talking dirty, not realizing his 5 year old daughter had walked in right behind him. They of course knocked it off immediately and tried not to make a big deal out of it.
The next day the kid repeated part of what she heard while she was at preschool. DSS (Department of Social Services) got a phone call from the preschool and they got the kid while she was still at the school. It cost him about $15,000.00 in legal fees to get his kid out of the foster home. He was also a firefighter (he worked for me part time) and nearly lost his job.
Yet another reason I'm glad I'm barren.
It's amazing to me that there are cases where abuse can go on unchecked/unpunished for ages and then a kid mutters a few words (that she doesn't even know the meaning of) and this guy loses $15k.
Freud would have a field day with that situation--castrated by your daughter--ouch.
Funny thing is--none of this stuff was on my radar when I was a kid--and the music in question in this thread existed then. I know various media is much, much more pervasive these days, but JEEZ--how did we survive?!
cute
Bull Moose Jackson wrote "Big Ten Inch" before anyone in Aerosmith was born. Just sayin'.

Yes, I explained that one to someone the other day.
Didn't Chevy use that song for a commercial?
I like the use of Beautiful World (Devo) by Target. I guess they didn't listen to the end of the song.
Speaking of repeating everything. Listening to Dave Ramsey (please spare me your opinion of him) on the way home tonight, he goes "no cosign, yuck!".

Technically, no.
Just sayin'.
The dirtiest song in rock n roll is Shake, Rattle, and Roll. Fo real. Listen close to the lyrics. And substitute berkleying every time you hear shake, rattle, and roll.
"...I'm a one eyed cat, peepin' in a seafood store.."

Right. All of Aerosmith is older than that song, according to wiki.

"So caught up in you, little girl...." What the berkeley!?
The Rolling Stones - Star Star
Written by Mick Jagger for the lovely Pamela... who was trying to collect the whole set.
The word filter ought to make this come out pretty funny.
Baby, baby, I've been so sad since you've been gone Way back to New York City Where you do belong Honey, I missed your two tongue kisses Legs wrapped around me tight If I ever get back to Fun City, girl I'm gonna make you scream all night
Honey, honey, call me on the telephone I know you're movin' out to Hollywood With your can of tasty foam All those beat up friends of mine Got to get you in their books And lead guitars and movie stars Get their tongues beneath your hook
Yeah! You're a star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star Yeah, a star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star A star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer star
Yeah, I heard about your Polaroids Now that's what I call obscene Your tricks with fruit was kinda cute I bet you keep your Bob Costas clean Honey, I miss your two tongue kisses Your legs wrapped around me tight If I ever get back to New York, girl Gonna make you scream all night
Yeah! You're a star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star Yeah, a star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star A star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer, star berkeleyer star
Yeah, Ali McGraw got mad with you For givin' head to Steve McQueen You and me, we made a pretty pair Fallin' through the silver screen Honey, I'm open to anything I don't know where to draw the line Yeah, I'm makin' bets that you gonna get John Wayne before he dies

There's a commercial for instant messaging or something with a baby in a stroller thingie an he flies from someone's home to grandma's while in the background someone sings: "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates..."
You want to have that ditty rattling around in your head on a Monday morning.
That would be Melanie, also famous for "Look What They Done To My Song, Ma" among others.
(Casey Kasem voice) "O.K. folks, here's one from 1913...."
"...You made me love you...I didn't want to do it..."
yikes, someone call Benson &Stabler
Another one I just heard (thank you Pandora) and loved (while no kids are around) is "I don't want to lose your love" by the Outfields. Sounds innocent. The line before the title is "I just want to use your love tonight". Wow. Never would have caught that if I wasn't listening intently, otherwise it sounds pretty innocent.

Bow Wow Wow--"I Want Candy"
Substitute "candy" for "sex" and the song makes much more sense.
