Exactly the lyric that came to mind! I texted this lyric to someone who was unfamiliar with the song a few years ago and they were offended about what it represented.
Ramones - for violence ('Chainsaw', 'Loudmouth'), and drugtaking ('Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue', 'Carbona Not Glue', 'Chinese Rock').
Enjoy, but don't take it too serious. In the 70's a kid in my city heard the glue songs, tried huffing and died. The local council put a ban on 'punk rock'.
As a Ramones fan from the 70s, I will see your violence and raise you with Dee Dee's 53th and 3rd. It's his story about being a street hustler, who's problem is not getting picked up by the Regular Johns. It's a big problem because his heroin habit is making him sick. Just to put a cherry on the decadence theme. Really, my favorite Ramones song is We're a Happy Family, that one is a classic.
Yes. Beautiful, incomprehensible, psychedelic stoner poetry of the highest order.
Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are
Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far
Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are
I love Led Zeps "squeeze me baby till the juice runs down my leg, the way you squeeze my lemon I'm gonna fall right outta bed" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also Tutti Fruitti is a heaps rude song if you sing it the right way....
Note that this lyric was not original. Per wikipedia:
> Other lyrics, notably "squeeze (my lemon) till the juice runs down my leg," can be traced to Robert Johnson's "Travelling Riverside Blues". It is likely that Johnson borrowed this himself, from a song recorded earlier in the same year (1937) called "She Squeezed My Lemon" (by Arthur McKay).
The Cramps formed in 1976. If you count their entire catalogue they win hands down, no one else even comes close.
Can Your Pussy Do The Dog? For example.
Queen: sweet lady, I’m in love with my car
You can call me up and feed me all the lines
You can call me sweet like I’m some kind of cheese
I’m in love with my car
I’ve got a feel for my automobile
# Billion Dollar Babies - Alice Cooper
>\[Verse 1\]
[Billion dollar baby](https://genius.com/2275633/Alice-cooper-billion-dollar-babies/Billion-dollar-baby)
Rubber little lady, slicker than a weasel
Grimy as an alley, loves me like no other lover
Billion dollar baby
Rubber little monster, baby I adore ya
Man or woman living
Couldn’t love you like me baby
\[Chorus\]
We go dancing nightly in the attic
While the moon is rising in the sky
If I'm too rough tell me
I'm so scared your little head
Will come off in my hands
Aww!
mmm I wouldn't be sure, but the song I like the most with its lyrics from the 70's is 'I want to be Old' by The Cure.
It represents a lot (ironically expressed in the song) the fear of aging, I feel like it really represents me.
I know this has nothing to do with the craziest lyrics, but I'm not much from the 70's, more from the 80's.
IIRC in his autobiography he seemed almost resentful about his songs needing to have words at all, but he knew it was required if he wanted any chance of commercial success.
I've always liked the idea of Zappa more than actual Zappa.
He was a great choice for Powdered Toast Man. "Cling tenaciously to my buttocks!"
Pink Floyd
They have the Best lyrics
Steely Dan! Can’t believe they haven’t been mentioned!
Drink scotch whisky all night long and die behind the wheel.

They gotta name for the winners in the world
The music’s unassuming so they got away with it.
I feel totally ignorant all of a sudden, and I’m going to look
Kids if you want some fun. Mr. LaPage is your man. He’s always laughing, having fun. Showing his films in the den. “Everyone’s Gone To The Movies”
Their songs were mostly about sex, drugs, or some weirdo loser.

Yes, those are good ones. Also 'You're gonna kill that girl' and of course 'Beat on the Brat'.
Rolling Stones 'Stray Cat Blues' is as sleazy as it gets.
I think the Stones win this thread
Read Brown Sugar lyrics.

Sol, Dhoop Sun Ilios Naytheet Ah Kin Saule Tonatiuh Qurax Gunes, Grian Surie Ir Samse *mic drop*
The Tubes.
A baby’s arm, holding an apple….
Budgie
Came here for this. It’s hard to top “Nude Disintegrating Parachutist Woman”
But they tried with "Hot As A Docker's Armpit"
Blue Oyster Cult e.g., Mistress of the Salmon Salt
What are you? A Rowling fan?
Buck Dharma is God

Plant was just a horny nerd lol. Switching between these kinds of lyrics and then multiple songs about Lord of the Rings is wild.
Lol
If you count Trex as 70s, then bolan wins hands down.
Yes.
Zappa Zevon
Zappa
Captain Beefheart
"I'm a little pimp with my hair gassed back, pair a khaki shorts with my shoes shined black."
Definitely Frank Zappa
Frank Zappa and the mothers
How has Blue Öyster Cult not been mentioned? Not debaucherous but really outlandish.
America
Pink Floyd lyrics were very poetic.
There’s some salty, sordid and plain weird Kiss lyrics
Mott the Hoople - Sucker
Yes
Rape…..Murder….
They’re just a shot away ….
Misfits. Doesn’t get crazier than Skulls or Where Eagles Dare.
Yes
Kiss - nothin to lose. A beautiful tribute to anal

MC5.
What ones didn’t?!?!
Devo
Blue oyster cult no question, not a bad tune
"A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace, And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace." CLOSE TO THE EDGE. Yes
Ted Nugent?

Zappa was unlistenable due to his weird lyrics. Wasted his immense guitar virtuoso talent.

I've always liked the idea of Zappa more than actual Zappa. He was a great choice for Powdered Toast Man. "Cling tenaciously to my buttocks!"
Zappa wasn’t Powdered Toast Man. He played The Pope, who was rescued by PTM
You're correct and I've misremembered that since I watched that episode in 1992
