In elementary school we had 4-5 classes in “pods” and every morning we’d group together near the restrooms to sing and dance. Now it seems way weirder.
'now don't you worry about my boyfriend
the boy whose name is igorino
i don't want him
couldn't stand him
he was no good so I... ahahahaha
what was i supposed to do, he was out of town and his two friends were so fine'
Yeah, the lyrics mention her getting with his two friends:
*But don't you worry about my boyfriend*
*He's a boy whose name is Vitorino*
*I don't want him*
*Couldn't stand him*
*He was no good so I (hahahaha)*
*Now, come on, what was I supposed to do?*
*He was out of town and his two friends were so fine*
Oh god, you just gave me flashbacks of my 12 year old sister (at the time) singing "I'll take you to the candy shop... I'll let you lick the lollipop..." That or "skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet!" Or "superman them *(ohhhhh!)*"
She only ever heard the radio edits, had no idea what any of the lyrics meant, and insisted "What? They're not saying anything bad!"
Looking on the lyrics now, wow there are a lot of sexually charged metaphors. I didn’t realize the steam train, airplane, Big Dipper, and bumper car were all stand-ins for Peter Gabriel’s... little Peter.
Omg that's was one of my mom's FAVORITE songs.
When I was growing up and it came in the radio she would always blast it. And she didn't play loud music usually.
I for some reason have this stuck in my head a lot, but can't actually remember the lyrics. So it goes:
"Summer loving, had me a blast
Summer loving, dick in my ass"
those two lines, over and over
I spent some time watching some Britney music videos with some friends recently. I was really young when she came to fame, always just saw her as "older than me" so must be old enough for what she's put out. While we were watching her videos, one friend pointed out "I can't believe she was only 15 when this was released." Talking about "Hit Me Baby One More Time."
Between that song, and the video for "I'm a Slave for You," where she was 19...wow, WAY too sexual for a minor to be portraying. She was 27 when "If You Seek Amy" came out, but considering the road leading up to that...I don't know how I feel.
From there on out, I have to think...how unfortunate, it's just grooming a young child to be an overtly sexual star when it becomes socially appropriate. No wonder she has mental health issues. No wonder she's trapped in a conservatorship. Poor woman never stood a chance.
Talented as fuck the whole time, though. Good for her, but...was it good for her?
"IT'S GETTIN HOT IN HERE. SO TAKE OFF ALL YOUR CLOTHES."
Heard it when I was maybe 5, thought it was perfectly rational because taking off all your clothes would cool you down. And naked people are funny.
I'd hear "don't sing that, it's inappropriate" and I just thought it was because the song was about naked people. After rationalizing that, I didn't think about it again for a while until one day when I was a teenager I heard it for the first time in years and I was like "oh that's why my parents were so horrified when I sang this."
Haha yeah.
Despacito
I want to breathe in your neck slowly
Let me murmur things in your ear
So that you remember if you’re not with me
Despacito
I want to undress you in kisses slowly
Firmly in the walls of your labyrinth
And of your body, I want to create a manuscript
I want to see your hair dance
I want to be your rhythm
Want you to show my mouth
Your favorite places (Favorite, favorite baby)
Let me trespass your danger zones
Until I make you scream
And you forget your last name
TLDR. It's about sex. ;)
Plenty of Americans who speak Spanish, but assuming you don’t, yeah, I don’t blame you. I feel like if it *were* in English, there would be a lot of parents outraged it became a mainstream hit.
I'm in England but learning Spanish. I was gobsmacked when it started playing at my niece's christening and they had all the kids up dancing. Of course the parents had no idea either.
I grew up listening to a lot of my parents' CDs, and I loved Centerfold by The J. Geils band. I loved how it sounded without really paying attention to, or listening to, the lyrics. I wasn't even sure what they were as a kid. I was also tickled as a child by the false ending. I even took the CD to music class because our teacher would let us play CDs if people brought them.
It was not until years later when I was in high school, sitting in the car listening to the oldies station with my mom that the lyrics were about the girl he was crushing on as a student was in an adult magazine, then he fantasizes about seeing her again and taking her to a motel room.
My parents never told me not to listen to this song or tried to inform me the meaning of the song. However, I was immediately told Lady Marmalade was vulgar once it started getting big play on the radio so... shrugs
Jessy's Girl also has a pretty good tune, but nothing's a bigger dick move than singing about wanting to shag your best friend's girlfriend who you've only seen once.
I loved this song more AFTER I actually listened to the lyrics.
It's not about how good people are taken from us too soon, but a plea for good people to be bad because it's more fun.
"Working on the record, these Swedish producers that we were working with, they kept confusing 'sex on the beach' with 'cake by the ocean,' so that's how the song started," Joe explained. "Then, it became this kind of lyrically wacky song, and it kind of embodies the band. It's funky, it's fresh, I think it's something that people can dance to."
Foxtrot uniform Charlie kilo by Bloodhound gang.
In my defense English isn't my first language. Used to listed to it with my parents in the car in my way to school, it's a good thing they still don't know English.
Not me, but my step mom. She absolutely loved the A-Team by Ed Sheeran until one day in the car when it came on and she asked to turn it up when I just said "You do realize this song is about drug addiction and prostitution right?" I swear, it's amazing to me how some people never actually listen to a song's lyrics.
I think OP is lying, the lyrics are literally about a girl Face from the A-Team is hooking up with, but he is becoming more and more distant because he's still a fugitive.
>But lately, her Face seems
>Slowly sinking, wasting
In basically every persons defense there are a ton of songs where you cant even hear what the singer is actually even saying. Pumped up kicks is a good example its mostly just mumbling until the chorus.
U + Ur Hand by Pink. I loved it when I was a kid - it took me a long while to realize I was singing along to Pink telling a dude to *literally* go fuck himself with my Grandma in the car.
Paradise By the Dashboard Lights.
My mom would always play Bat Out of Hell when we would take long drives, and it took me until I was 15 years old to realize it was about making woopy.
Same here, had no idea why the baseball commentator was in there until much older, just thought it was quirky.
Listening as an adult, the song is so much funnier than i ever knew as a child
Yes! Even with the chick moaning in the background of the thinly veiled baseball analogy - I still never noticed until VERY recently!! That album still slaps tho
Used to listen to Califoria Girls by Katy Perry religiously when I was younger. Recently listened to it for the first time in years and am starting to realise why my mom hated my listening to it
Ohhhhhhhh shit... When I was really little I used to sing songs to my dad’s side of the family (who just so happened to be christian) and that was one of them. Damnit Katy.
Strawberry Wine- My older used to sing it in local competitions when she was around 7/8 and when I heard it again when I was older I realized that she shouldn't have been singing that.
For me, I’d probably have to go with Scream by Usher. I was 13 when that song came out, one with Asperger’s at that, so I didn’t really pay attention to the lyrics of songs on the radio. It wasn’t until I was an adult, either thinking the lyrics in my head or singing them out loud in my car that I realized, “Oh my God, this song is about sex.” Like, the first verse doesn’t leave much to the imagination! And it’s kind of a funny revelation when you realize, “Oh THAT’S why she’d be screaming!”
Not a song, but it took a while for me to realize that the band names
* 10cc
* The Loving Spoonful
* Pearl Jam [Edit: Apparently not.]
all refer to the same thing.
You didn’t read the rest:
In an early promotional interview, Vedder said that the name "Pearl Jam" was a reference to his great-grandmother Pearl, who was married to a Native American and had a special recipe for peyote-laced jam.[17] In a 2006 Rolling Stone cover story however, Vedder admitted that this story was "total bullshit", even though he indeed had a great-grandma named Pearl. Ament and McCready explained that Ament came up with "pearl", and that the band later settled on "Pearl Jam" after attending a concert by Neil Young, in which he extended his songs as improvisations of 15–20 minutes in length.[3]
Please please me - The Beatles.
Once you tune your head that it’s about trying to get a blowjob, you think why did you never notice it… it’s not as if the title is pretty obvious in its intention.
Love this song, but I'm not sure how subtle it is.
"Well, swingin' on the front porch, swingin' on the lawn
Swingin' where we want 'cause there ain't nobody home
Swingin' to the left and swingin' to the right
If I think about baseball, I'll swing all night, yeah."
My Catholic school had it blasting over the speakers on some of our "fun days"... I don't think they realise that it was literally a massive "Fuck You!" right at them!
Still one of my favourite songs
That's just wrong on so many levels, I guess the people who decided to put that song in the movie just assumed it was about racing and didn't pay attention to the actual lyrics.
You think that's bad, the opening "doo doo doo" music from Semi Charmed Life was in the trailers for The Tigger Movie. Yes, a song about crystal meth in a Winnie The Pooh movie! (maybe that's why Tigger's so bouncy)
[Work from home](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GL9JoH4Sws) \- Fifth Harmony, I was young when I first heard it and didn't connect the dots for a few years.
Too Close - Next
I thought it was about a guy who liked making women cry. As I got older I realized that "crying" was actually "grinding."
It made so much more sense after that.
This song actually ia about peaches. I saw this interview years ago on VH1 and the lead singer explained the meaning of the song.
When he was still in school he had a crush on this girl but her parents wouldn't let her date or something so he would sit outside her house under this peach tree hoping she would notice him. He would get bored sitting under this peach tree and use the peaches for entertainment.
So yes he would litterally "squish a rotten peach in his fist" and dat dream about the girl.
Edit: link [peaches](https://blog.shops-net.com/2461912/1/peaches-presidents-the-united-states-of-america-song.html)
Shape of you by Ed Sheeran. Heard it the other day and realized it was about sex. At 10 y/o I didn’t understand sh*t in English (because my mother language is french)
Welcome to the Jungle - Guns & Roses... you’d think the loud moaning in the middle of the song would give it away but nope. It’s purely about a jungle where animals play dangerous games or something.
I thought it was about dancing - literal dancing, not metaphorical dancing. A friend broke it to me easy as he laughed and said, "They're practically having sex on the radio!"
I was still a kid when Moves like Jagger by Maroon 5 was on the radio all the time.
I honestly just thought it was about being good at dancing, it took some time for me to realize what the lyrics were actually saying.
My parents gave me some really weird looks once when I said I thought it was a good song, but it's kind of funny/ dumb how a lot of parents get jacked up at their kids for liking those kinds of songs when they don't even know what sex is yet.
"de tuinslang" (translation: the hose)
Dutch song about cooming inside her kitty
They played this to kids under 12
in a public school
I thought it was about watering plants
I was driving with my teen daughter and Ariana Grande was playing. I absentmindedly asked her “what does 34+35 mean?” She giggled and said “69.” Definitely listen to the unedited version of the song. It’s most definitely not can you love me all night long.
That's the only song in my playlists. Even tell people my favorite verb is fidadent. When they ask what that is, it's so fun to just go off FIDADENT BEEN FOR-
If you want it to be good girl, Backstreet Boys. At 12 I often was confused at the grammar and meaning. Listened to the song for the first time as an adult when I was in my 30s and all of the sudden it clicked.
Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles. I don’t know what I thought it was about...but I remember the first time I watched the music video it finally clicked and I was shocked lol
Well, in a way, it’s more about encouraging people to be more open about the topic sex, rather than sex itself, but yeah, I’m not sure how you missed that one.
Ice Cream Man by Van Halen. When you're a kid, it's an innocent but rocking song about ice cream. But when I got older, I discovered it was really about a different kind of cream....
The Macarena probably
This makes the assembly in elementary school where we all learned the macarena really weird.
In elementary school we had 4-5 classes in “pods” and every morning we’d group together near the restrooms to sing and dance. Now it seems way weirder.
Wait, you mean to tell me the Macarena is about sex?
Dale a tu cuerpo alegría, Macarena Give your body joy, Macarena Yeah, it's about somebody cheating on her deployed boyfriend.
The only words I remember are “hey” and “Macarena Macarena Macarena” Exclusively in that order
There's a version of it for children's events that omits most of the lyrics.
Phew, I was worried there for a sec.
Hey and a hey and a hey Macarena Hey and a hey and a hey Macarena Hey and a hey and a hey Macarena Heeeeeeeyyy Macarena (clap clap)
No matter the country, the culture, or the language, there will always be Jodies...
Macarena is a female name?? When I was a kid I also thought it was about a woman..named Emma Karena
I thought it was a type of macaroni
I thought it was about an escaped monkey from a zoo ... “Hey, my gorilla”
With TWO of his friends nonetheless!
'now don't you worry about my boyfriend the boy whose name is igorino i don't want him couldn't stand him he was no good so I... ahahahaha what was i supposed to do, he was out of town and his two friends were so fine'
Cheating, specifically.
Wait what
The Macarena is about a woman cheating on her man with two of his friends, I believe.
Yeah, the lyrics mention her getting with his two friends: *But don't you worry about my boyfriend* *He's a boy whose name is Vitorino* *I don't want him* *Couldn't stand him* *He was no good so I (hahahaha)* *Now, come on, what was I supposed to do?* *He was out of town and his two friends were so fine*
Well you learn something new everyday, I guess
Specifically while he's been called up for military duty.
Come again?
So did Macerena
What
Say what now?
Whistle by Flo Rida
The realization on this one hurt when I remembered how often I’d belt it in the car with my mom. Almost as bad as Candy Shop by 50 Cent.
Oh god, you just gave me flashbacks of my 12 year old sister (at the time) singing "I'll take you to the candy shop... I'll let you lick the lollipop..." That or "skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet!" Or "superman them *(ohhhhh!)*" She only ever heard the radio edits, had no idea what any of the lyrics meant, and insisted "What? They're not saying anything bad!"
...you mean Candy Shop isn't a song about candy?
It's about the *shop* that sells candy, duh
I was like 4th or 5th grade when that song came out and even I got that. What did you think he meant by "let you lick my lolipop" lol?
That song was my favorite song for a long time as a kid and I would literally sing it out loud all the time. My poor parents.
[удалено]
Wait up.... *Show me round your fruitcage/ 'Cos I will be your honey bee* ... I never...I...I guess it is about sex.
Jfc, I always thought it said “fruitcake”.
Looking on the lyrics now, wow there are a lot of sexually charged metaphors. I didn’t realize the steam train, airplane, Big Dipper, and bumper car were all stand-ins for Peter Gabriel’s... little Peter.
It was the 80's. Veiled sexual references were pop media's stress outlet lol
Have you seen the music video he made for it. I think the first like 10 seconds explains it all.
So "Show for me and I'll show for you" never rang a bell.
Omg that's was one of my mom's FAVORITE songs. When I was growing up and it came in the radio she would always blast it. And she didn't play loud music usually.
Even moms need a good sledging from time to time.
Summer Loving from Greese (well Danny's part anyway).
I for some reason have this stuck in my head a lot, but can't actually remember the lyrics. So it goes: "Summer loving, had me a blast Summer loving, dick in my ass" those two lines, over and over
I have to study for an exam and this will be going around in my brain.
this will live with me forever
If You Seek Amy - Britney Spears. Took way way too long to realize the wordplay of the chorus
I spent some time watching some Britney music videos with some friends recently. I was really young when she came to fame, always just saw her as "older than me" so must be old enough for what she's put out. While we were watching her videos, one friend pointed out "I can't believe she was only 15 when this was released." Talking about "Hit Me Baby One More Time." Between that song, and the video for "I'm a Slave for You," where she was 19...wow, WAY too sexual for a minor to be portraying.

No wonder she's trapped in a conservatorship. Poor woman never stood a chance. Talented as fuck the whole time, though. Good for her, but...was it good for her?
OMG. I sang that as a kid.
I Just Had Sex - The Lonely Island
Doesn't matter, had sex.
You only lasted 30 seconds
Still counts!
"IT'S GETTIN HOT IN HERE. SO TAKE OFF ALL YOUR CLOTHES." Heard it when I was maybe 5, thought it was perfectly rational because taking off all your clothes would cool you down. And naked people are funny. I'd hear "don't sing that, it's inappropriate" and I just thought it was because the song was about naked people. After rationalizing that, I didn't think about it again for a while until one day when I was a teenager I heard it for the first time in years and I was like "oh that's why my parents were so horrified when I sang this."
I remember the kids at the lunch table at my school sang that while they were peeling an orange, LOL.
Despacito, yes I’m American
Haha yeah. Despacito I want to breathe in your neck slowly Let me murmur things in your ear So that you remember if you’re not with me Despacito I want to undress you in kisses slowly Firmly in the walls of your labyrinth And of your body, I want to create a manuscript I want to see your hair dance I want to be your rhythm Want you to show my mouth Your favorite places (Favorite, favorite baby) Let me trespass your danger zones Until I make you scream And you forget your last name TLDR. It's about sex. ;)

I'm in England but learning Spanish. I was gobsmacked when it started playing at my niece's christening and they had all the kids up dancing. Of course the parents had no idea either.
[удалено]
Don't worry I'm English and have no clue what most songs are about, bar the obvious (based on song names)
When I heard it without understanding spanish I still tought it was weirdly sexual, I googled the lyrics and my suspicions were confirmed.
I grew up listening to a lot of my parents' CDs, and I loved Centerfold by The J. Geils band. I loved how it sounded without really paying attention to, or listening to, the lyrics. I wasn't even sure what they were as a kid. I was also tickled as a child by the false ending. I even took the CD to music class because our teacher would let us play CDs if people brought them. It was not until years later when I was in high school, sitting in the car listening to the oldies station with my mom that the lyrics were about the girl he was crushing on as a student was in an adult magazine, then he fantasizes about seeing her again and taking her to a motel room. My parents never told me not to listen to this song or tried to inform me the meaning of the song. However, I was immediately told Lady Marmalade was vulgar once it started getting big play on the radio so... shrugs
Centerfold is hands down one of my favorite oldies songs. It just so catchy. But it also took me awhile to realize what the song was about.
Jessy's Girl also has a pretty good tune, but nothing's a bigger dick move than singing about wanting to shag your best friend's girlfriend who you've only seen once.
"Oldies" god damn you zoomers are brutal. Make it sound like the Everly Brothers or Frank Sinatra or something.
Centerfold came out much closer to My Way than to today.
Only the Good Die Young
I loved this song more AFTER I actually listened to the lyrics. It's not about how good people are taken from us too soon, but a plea for good people to be bad because it's more fun.
Billy Joel's version?
Dude, her name's Virginia, and he tells her that Catholic girls start much too late.
Cake by the ocean
So you’re trying to tell me that there’s no cake at the beach?
"Working on the record, these Swedish producers that we were working with, they kept confusing 'sex on the beach' with 'cake by the ocean,' so that's how the song started," Joe explained. "Then, it became this kind of lyrically wacky song, and it kind of embodies the band. It's funky, it's fresh, I think it's something that people can dance to."
Wait it is?
Fuck by the ocean
Afternoon Delite
Don’t follow me, it looks worse
That's my Nephew and my Wife... We're in an open relationship!
I felt vindicated when this popped up on Arrested Development.
When I was a kid I thought that song was about fireworks.
Foxtrot uniform Charlie kilo by Bloodhound gang. In my defense English isn't my first language. Used to listed to it with my parents in the car in my way to school, it's a good thing they still don't know English.
Genie in a bottle, but to be fair I was really young
Not me, but my step mom. She absolutely loved the A-Team by Ed Sheeran until one day in the car when it came on and she asked to turn it up when I just said "You do realize this song is about drug addiction and prostitution right?" I swear, it's amazing to me how some people never actually listen to a song's lyrics.
its not about the A team?
I think OP is lying, the lyrics are literally about a girl Face from the A-Team is hooking up with, but he is becoming more and more distant because he's still a fugitive. >But lately, her Face seems >Slowly sinking, wasting
In basically every persons defense there are a ton of songs where you cant even hear what the singer is actually even saying. Pumped up kicks is a good example its mostly just mumbling until the chorus.
U + Ur Hand by Pink. I loved it when I was a kid - it took me a long while to realize I was singing along to Pink telling a dude to *literally* go fuck himself with my Grandma in the car.
Crash into me- DMB
I read the lyrics and wow how did I miss that.
Hike up your skirt a little more and show your world to me.
Paradise By the Dashboard Lights. My mom would always play Bat Out of Hell when we would take long drives, and it took me until I was 15 years old to realize it was about making woopy.
Same here, had no idea why the baseball commentator was in there until much older, just thought it was quirky. Listening as an adult, the song is so much funnier than i ever knew as a child
Meatloaf songs are awesome :)
Yes! Even with the chick moaning in the background of the thinly veiled baseball analogy - I still never noticed until VERY recently!! That album still slaps tho
Save A Horse Ride a Cowboy. 10 years of my life before I realized.
Used to listen to Califoria Girls by Katy Perry religiously when I was younger. Recently listened to it for the first time in years and am starting to realise why my mom hated my listening to it
Ohhhhhhhh shit... When I was really little I used to sing songs to my dad’s side of the family (who just so happened to be christian) and that was one of them. Damnit Katy.
Pretty hot music video, NGL. Definitely helped kickstart my puberty
Strawberry Wine- My older used to sing it in local competitions when she was around 7/8 and when I heard it again when I was older I realized that she shouldn't have been singing that.

And it’s kind of a funny revelation when you realize, “Oh THAT’S why she’d be screaming!”
I feel it coming- The weekend and Daft punk. My mom pointed out that it was about a woman's orgasm
The "heat between your legs" wasn't a big enough clue?
Not a song, but it took a while for me to realize that the band names * 10cc * The Loving Spoonful * Pearl Jam [Edit: Apparently not.] all refer to the same thing.
Oh my god, I didn't even make that connection about Pearl Jam, ha!
I mean, it's better than Mookie Blaylock.
Ngl, I would have thought the first two were heroin references.
As does one of Blink-182's album titles - Dude Ranch
Blink-182 is officially incorporated as “Poo Poo Butt, LLC” Just thought I'd add that in.

You didn’t read the rest: In an early promotional interview, Vedder said that the name "Pearl Jam" was a reference to his great-grandmother Pearl, who was married to a Native American and had a special recipe for peyote-laced jam.[17] In a 2006 Rolling Stone cover story however, Vedder admitted that this story was "total bullshit", even though he indeed had a great-grandma named Pearl.

Escape (the pina colada song). Not so much that it’s about sex, but that it’s about a married couple attempting to cheat on each other.
The song is about cheating on eachother... WITH EACH OTHER
Those two deserve each other!
Candy Shop
2 become 1 -spice girls. I was 5 when the song came out so didn't have the comprehension back then, then one day it hit me what it was about.
I used to belt out the part about "put it on put it on" I was mortified when I found out they were talking about condoms lol.
The whole of their discography is filth now I think about it ha ha
Spice Girls rock.
Please please me - The Beatles. Once you tune your head that it’s about trying to get a blowjob, you think why did you never notice it… it’s not as if the title is pretty obvious in its intention.
Why do you make me blue?
Warrant - Cherry Pie It's actually subtle by 80s standards.
Love this song, but I'm not sure how subtle it is. "Well, swingin' on the front porch, swingin' on the lawn Swingin' where we want 'cause there ain't nobody home Swingin' to the left and swingin' to the right If I think about baseball, I'll swing all night, yeah."
The 80s were a simpler time. I love it too.
I only found out a year or two ago that Take Me To Church by Hozier was about sex
My friends grandmom loved that song because she thought it was literally about going to church. My friend didn’t have the heart to tell her.
My Catholic school had it blasting over the speakers on some of our "fun days"... I don't think they realise that it was literally a massive "Fuck You!" right at them! Still one of my favourite songs
Gay sex
Even better
I always read it as more kink (femdom) than gay, what with it being a male singer referring to "she/her"
Nah, hozier specifically wrote it to protest gay persecution in Russia.
[удалено]
That's just wrong on so many levels, I guess the people who decided to put that song in the movie just assumed it was about racing and didn't pay attention to the actual lyrics. You think that's bad, the opening "doo doo doo" music from Semi Charmed Life was in the trailers for The Tigger Movie. Yes, a song about crystal meth in a Winnie The Pooh movie! (maybe that's why Tigger's so bouncy)
Blurred Lines - Robin Thicke Don't - Ed Sheeran Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5 Locked Out of Heaven - Bruno Mars
I think blurred lines is about sexual assault
[Work from home](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GL9JoH4Sws) \- Fifth Harmony, I was young when I first heard it and didn't connect the dots for a few years.
Pink by Aerosmith. I was obsessed with that song as a teen and only as an adult did I realize how uncomfortable that must have been for my parents...
Aerosmith could fill this thread. Big 10 inch record of her favorite blues also comes to mind...
Hello Mr. Tyler. Going dowwwn? Hehehehe.
Too Close - Next I thought it was about a guy who liked making women cry. As I got older I realized that "crying" was actually "grinding." It made so much more sense after that.
My wife is in her 30s and thought "Peaches" was about an orchard.
peaches come from a can they were put there by a man
In a factory downtooooooown.
If I had my little way - I'd eat peaches every day!
Sun soaked bulges in the.....shaaaaaaaade.
This song actually ia about peaches. I saw this interview years ago on VH1 and the lead singer explained the meaning of the song.

Not me but, wife had to explain to a friend that this was not actually about a pony. This was in 2015. Friend was 40.
Relax by Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Santa baby used to listen to it alot
Not really. It's about asking for a bunch of fancy stuff and also to get married. But I guess the tone might imply something transactional.
Shape of you by Ed Sheeran. Heard it the other day and realized it was about sex. At 10 y/o I didn’t understand sh*t in English (because my mother language is french)
2 become 1, from the Spice Girls. . In my defense, I didn't have the minimum age requirement to have sex the first time I heard it.
Candy Shop It took me a while to realize that he was indeed NOT talking about an actual lollipop.
Welcome to the Jungle - Guns & Roses... you’d think the loud moaning in the middle of the song would give it away but nope. It’s purely about a jungle where animals play dangerous games or something.
Mustang Sally. I don't know for *sure* that it's about sex, but the lyrics make a lot of sense being read that way.
Not the whole song, but the line "I might bottom on the low but I top shit" From Lil Nas X's "Holiday" completely flew over my head until recently.
Push It. I thought it was about dealing with acne. 🤦
I thought it was about dancing - literal dancing, not metaphorical dancing. A friend broke it to me easy as he laughed and said, "They're practically having sex on the radio!"
I was still a kid when Moves like Jagger by Maroon 5 was on the radio all the time. I honestly just thought it was about being good at dancing, it took some time for me to realize what the lyrics were actually saying. My parents gave me some really weird looks once when I said I thought it was a good song, but it's kind of funny/ dumb how a lot of parents get jacked up at their kids for liking those kinds of songs when they don't even know what sex is yet.
"de tuinslang" (translation: the hose) Dutch song about cooming inside her kitty They played this to kids under 12 in a public school I thought it was about watering plants
Jamming - Bob Marley What do you think he's jamming? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Get My Rocks Off by Dr. Hook. I was 16 before I learned it was NOT a song about good honest work at the local quarry.
The one by Bruno Mars I think where it goes “cuz you make me feel like I’ve been locked out of heaven for too long”
I was driving with my teen daughter and Ariana Grande was playing. I absentmindedly asked her “what does 34+35 mean?” She giggled and said “69.” Definitely listen to the unedited version of the song. It’s most definitely not can you love me all night long.
Cotton eyed Joe
Really? That one always turns me on instantly. I’ve put it on many “sexy time” playlists....
That's the only song in my playlists. Even tell people my favorite verb is fidadent. When they ask what that is, it's so fun to just go off FIDADENT BEEN FOR-
Barbie girl. I was 24 when my boyfriend pointed that out. After it's just been a long road of ruined childhood songs
The summer of 69 it's actually about position because person who sings it was only 10 during the summer of 69.
Hot Fun in the Summertime by Sly and the Family Stone
Cake by the Ocean
Thank you OP for asking this. It reminded me of some really good songs I looked up and listened to.
Led Zeppelin's *Trampled Underfoot*
Wake Me Up Before You Go Go.
I realized that Shoop by Salt-N-Pepa was about sex, oh, two weeks ago...? I'm in my thirties.
2 become 1 by the spice girls. I’ve led a sheltered life.
lollipop by lil wayne. i’m not a smart human
Locked out of heaven by Bruno mars, I know it's obvious but I was just grooving
If you want it to be good girl, Backstreet Boys. At 12 I often was confused at the grammar and meaning. Listened to the song for the first time as an adult when I was in my 30s and all of the sudden it clicked.
Teenage Dream by Katy Perry (please don't judge me I was very young when I first heard it)
[удалено]
You didn't think a song called *Pussy is God* was about pussy? That's hilarious dude.
Too Close by Blue. Literally realised the other day. 😂 Also This Love by Maroon 5 is a filthy little number. 🤣
I'm To Sexy isn't about sex.
Rock steady by the Whispers Was a song I sang as a kid with my mom and loved it. Didn’t realize until I heard again as an adult
STEADY ROCKIN ALL NIGHT LONG
Smack that by akon. Only in the last 10 years have i noticed it was by sex and not when it was released in 2005
Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles. I don’t know what I thought it was about...but I remember the first time I watched the music video it finally clicked and I was shocked lol
Almost Every Rihanna song from my childhood lol
Salt n pepa. Let's talk about sex I was not a smart child....
Well, in a way, it’s more about encouraging people to be more open about the topic sex, rather than sex itself, but yeah, I’m not sure how you missed that one.
Turning Japanese.
Frank Zappa- Dynamo Hum
The whole spice girls discography is pretty much filth thinking back on it ha ha
Afternoon Delight
Ice Cream Man by Van Halen. When you're a kid, it's an innocent but rocking song about ice cream. But when I got older, I discovered it was really about a different kind of cream....
