I remember thinking these were dreadful even back then - Some girls will, some girls won't Some girls need a lot of lovin' and some girls don't Well, I know I've got the fever but I don't know why Some say they will and some girls lie. I don't have a problem with that one, it's fairly accurate, to me anyway. now Springsteen's I'm on Fire is another story and a few of Stings Lyrics are dodgy as well, Don't Stand So Close to Me? but then again Rock 'n Roll was founded on well sexist lyrics from blues songs, the original lyrics to Hound Dog are, err, interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If her daddy's poor then do what you feel. Plus of course - 'have a drink, have a drive'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even worse, this one - Can't believe anyone ever thought these lyrics were okay, even in 1974/75. Girls I like them fat, I like them tall Some skinny, some small I got to get to know them all Girls love the things they know Love the things they show Have to be where they go Pretty girls the sunshine in the air The perfume that they wear Girls are everywhere I like to be on an island With five or six of them fine ones With one to be in good looking And one to do best cooking Give me one with a lot of money Give me two with a lots of honey Give me three to do freaky things Give me four or five more that like to swing Must admit I wasn’t keen on the “Boys” version! In my defence....”It’s got a good beat!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked for Corus/Tata and one of my colleagues was a Nigel, unfortunately he didn't know the song so my witless crooning of the lyrics was wasted.

I was chatting to a guy (Zoom) recently he asked where I gigged (before THE EVENT) I said a lot of my work was in Swindon. Oh yeah? Are there any bands from Swindon? Ignoring the idiocy of the remark, I said, well there's XTC for one. He thought that was hilarious, as he'd never heard of them. This is a fully grown British adult. I left the meeting.
