I will be your father figure
(Oh baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind
(It would make me)
I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(Please let me)
I will be the one who loves you
'Til the end of time

That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken
For a crime
That's all I wanted
Just to see my baby's
Blue eyes shine
This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be
Strong, baby

But in the video the woman is clearly full grown.

That "into the night" video is one I wish I had never, ever seen.

Still creepy.

The into the night video feels pedophilic to me. Like really disgusting.

Vibe by R Kelly

...Like I'm your teddy bear

Goodbye Earl --by The Chicks (formerly Dixie)
When this album came out there was a lot of controversy about this song:

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H club, both active in the FFA

After graduation Mary Anne went out
lookin' for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town and all she found was Earl

Well, it wasn't two weeks after she got married that
Wanda started gettin' abused
She'd put on dark glasses or long sleeved blouses
Or make-up to cover a bruise

Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
And she let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda's hand as they worked out a plan
And it didn't take 'em long to decide
That Earl had to die,

Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas, they tasted alright to me, Earl
You're feelin' weak? Why don't you lay down and sleep, Earl
Ain't it dark wrapped up in that tarp, Earl?

The cops came by to bring Earl in
They searched the house high and low
Then they tipped their hats and said, thank you ladies
If you hear from him let us know

Well, the weeks went by and spring turned to summer
And summer faded into fall
And it turns out he was a missing person who nobody missed at all

So the girls bought some land and a roadside stand
Out on highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham and strawberry jam
And they don't lose any sleep at night, 'cause
Earl had to die

Goodbye Earl
We need a break, let's go out to the lake, Earl
We'll pack a lunch, and stuff you in the trunk, Earl
Is that alright? Good! Let's go for a ride, Earl, hey!
Ooh hey hey hey, ummm hey hey hey, hey hey hey

On the 16-17 year old thing, Joan Jett sings of a 17 year old "standing by the record machine"

I remember thinking Aerosmith's "Rag Doll" was pretty pervy when the video came out when I was a teen.

"Baby It's Cold Outside" is charming IMO, but date rape song apparently.

Joan Jett was covering a Chuck Berry tune there.

Nope. Original by the British band Arrows. https://listverse.com/2012/10/14/10-more-famous-songs-with-unknown-originals/

She's just 16 years old
Leave her alone, they say
Separated by fools
Who don't know what love is yet
But I want you to know
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Like you've never seen, ever seen
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
It's like having a dream
Where nobody has a heart, noboby baby
It's like having it all
And watching it fall apart
And I would wait 'til the end
Of time for you
And do it again, it's true, baby
I can't measure my love
There's nothing to compare it to
But I want you to know
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Oh, if I could fly
I'd pick you up
And into the night, take you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Come on, help me out
Oh, oh, oh
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you, show you a love
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
And into the night
(Into the night)

I have always loathed this song. So so gross.

Interesting interview telling about how the song was written:

Think someone posted this, here’s the lyrics—Gary Puckett

“Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl,
You're much too young, girl

With all the charms of a woman
You've kept the secret of your youth
You led me to believe
You're old enough

To give me Love
And now it hurts to know the truth, Oh,
Beneath your perfume and make-up
You're just a baby in disguise

And though you know
That it is wrong to be
Alone with me
That come on look is in your eyes, Oh,

So hurry home to your mama
I'm sure she wonders where you are
Get out of here

Before I have the time
To change my mind
'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far, Oh,
Young girl”

His “Jewish Princess” is pretty gross too.

Was this posted yet? The Beatles

“Well, I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or I won't know where I am
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end, little girl
Well, you know that I'm a wicked guy
And I was born with a jealous mind
And I can't spend my whole life
Trying just to make you toe the line
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end, little girl
Let this be a sermon
I mean everything I've said
Baby, I'm determined
And I'd rather see you dead
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end, little girl
I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or you won't know where I am
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end, little girl”

How about the lyrics to Magdalena? Totally gross incest
The Who's Quadrophenia "Who is she? I'll rape it!"

PP and actually, this factoid was my first thought re: Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again” sung by David Coverdale;

In an interview, Coverdale explained that initially the lyrics had "drifter" but as that was already used in different songs he chose instead "hobo", however the latter was changed again to "drifter" in the re-recorded '87 version, reportedly to ensure that it would not be misheard as "homo".

Frank Zappos’s “Catholic Girls.” Absolutely vile.

Catholic Girls
Do you know how they go?
Catholic Girls
In the Rectory Basement
Father Riley's a fairy
But it don't bother Mary
Catholic Girls
At the CYO
Catholic Girls
Do you know how they go?
Catholic Girls
There can be no replacement
How do they go, after the show?
All the way
(That's right, all the way!)
That's the way they go
Every day
(That's right!)
And none of their mamas ever seem to know
Hip-Hip-Hooray
For all the class they show
There's nothing like a Catholic Girl
At the CYO
When they learn to blow
They're learning to blow
All the Catholic Boys!
Warren Cuccurullo
Catholic Boys!
Kinda young, kinda WOW!
Catholic Boys!
Vinnie Colaiuta . . .
Where are they now?
Did they all take The Vow?
Catholic Girls!
Carmenita Scarfone!
Catholic Girls!
Hey! She gave me VD!
Catholic Girls!
Toni Carbone!
With a tongue like a cow
She could make you go WOW!
VD Vowdy vootie
Right away
That's the way they go
Every day
Whenever their mamas take them to a show
Matinee
Pass the popcorn please
There's nothing like a Catholic Girl
With her hand in the box
When she's on her knees
What a lovely song by Frank Zappa.



She was on her knees
My little Catholic Girl
Chorus:
In a little white dress
Catholic Girls
They never confess
Catholic Girls
I got one for a cousin
I love how they go
So send me a dozen

What? Why?

All of the songs about sex would totally fly today.

The songs that wouldn't work today are the ones with outdated lyrics like Money for Nothing, the Lou Reed song, etc. And also the songs about underage girls.

Depeche Mode’s A Question of Time. I love Depeche Mode but yikes. “Now you’re only fifteen, and you look good. I’ll take you under my wing - somebody should”. It continues on the same note.

I love George Michael, but I thought that song was creepy when it came out.
