She's a very kinky girl...

I was talking with a friend recently about songs that we used to sing as kids, but whose lyrics we didn't really have a grasp on until we were much older. The two that stand out the most for me are "Start Me Up" by The Rolling Stones, and hilariously enough Rick James's "Superfreak".

When I was about 11 years old those songs were fairly new, and a friend brought the singles to my birthday party, along with others, as my gift. I still have the image in my head of my friends and I blasting the music, singing and dancing to the words we knew by heart.

I honestly didn't know "Start Me Up" was anything sexual, even though the ending line is "You make a dead man cum".

As sad as it is, I also didn't "get" what Rick James meant by "I'd really like to taste her every time we meet". So there we were, 11 years old and singing at the top of our lungs about oral sex.

Do you have songs that you didn't "get" when you were a kid, and now look back and laugh at what you were singing about?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

kupomog, I think you win for "I Touch Myself". I cannot stop laughing over that one.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That song was out when I was really very young and I remember thinking it was about a sundae or something. I did used to sing that, but didn't know enough of the words for it matter. The little bit I did know was pretty much "Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight, aaaaaaaafternoon delight", and that was as far as it went.

It is funny to me now that I thought it was about going out for dessert.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
