"Turning Japanese" is a colloquialism describing the facial contortions that sometimes occur during orgasm.

How exactly is "Summer Babe" about jerking it?

"Ice baby, I saw your girlfriend and she's eatin' her fingers like they're just another meal but she waits there in the levee wash mixing cocktails with her plastic-tipped cigar."

Uhhhh... yeah!

The Osborne Brothers - "Rocky Top"

Curt1s St3ph3ns, Friday, 21 March 2003 02:25 (twenty-three years ago)


There was a man, a lonely man
who lost his love through his indifference
a heart that cared that went unshared
until it died within his silence

CHORUS:
And solitaire's the only game in town
and every road that takes him takes him down
while life goes on around him everywhere
he's playing solitaire

And keeping to himself he plays the game
without her love, it always ends the same
and by himself it's easy to pretend
he'll never love again
A little hope goes up in smoke
just how it goes, goes without saying
There was a man, a lonely man
who would command the hand he's playing

Gatinha (rwillmsen), Friday, 21 March 2003 02:43 (twenty-three years ago)

"Happy With My Hand" - Annette Peacock

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Friday, 21 March 2003 13:27 (twenty-three years ago)

(hm, the above would rhyme rather well with
"Soddin' With Saddam"
...but that'd be, evidently, 'bout a different sort of... self satisfaction)

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Friday, 21 March 2003 13:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Is everyone studiously avoiding mentioning Ivor Biggun's 1978 smash hit because it's just too bleedin' obvious?

http://freespace.virgin.net/stephen.theobald/lyrics_winkerssong.txt

He was actually Doc Cox from That's Life y'know - what ever would Esther have said if she'd found out?

Masturbation Blues - David Alan Coe

m0stly clean (m0stly clean), Thursday, 11 August 2005 14:45 (twenty years ago)

I read somewhere that the following song:

Devo - Uncontrollable Urge

is about masturbation, though I can't get it.

zeus, Thursday, 11 August 2005 15:14 (twenty years ago)

Just wanted to say that "Anything by U2" line, upthread, is still pretty funny.

Billy Pilgrim (Billy Pilgrim), Thursday, 11 August 2005 15:45 (twenty years ago)

Never noticed "Sleeping Late" by Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show until now, but it definitely fits:

Sometimes I'm embarrassed by devious thoughts
When I'm undercover let me never get caught
Crazy notions begin with that old devil grin on my face
We're such a disgrace, me and my pillow-case

Sleeping late, sleeping late
Sleeping late, sleeping late

The blissful state of sleeping late has been known to compensate
And sometimes even stimulate
I for one appreciate, sleeping late
Ain't it great sleeping late

God Bullies - Artificial Insemination by Aliens:
"I must have killed millions and millions of babies with my bare hands..." :D

ArchCarrier, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:03 (eighteen years ago)

I just had a revelation with Webb Pierce's "Walking the Dog":

I'm walking the dog and I'm never blue
I'm walking the dog, I ain't thinkin' 'bout you
I don't need no one to tie me down
I'm walking the dog and I'm paintin' the town
Such an easy life, I never knew until the day that I left you
Well I'm a carefree lad that's seen the light
I'm walking the dog all the day and all night

brilliant euphemism

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 03:30 (eighteen years ago)

"The Southern Oklahoma Cosmic Trigger Contest" - I'm assuming, then, that "Keep the Cosmic Trigger Happy" by The Super Furry Animals is a reference to this?

Pillbox, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 03:51 (eighteen years ago)

"Keep the Cosmic Trigger Happy" came first.

Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 03:57 (eighteen years ago)

that's what she said

Pillbox, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 04:23 (eighteen years ago)

Sondre Lerche - "Single-Hand Affairs"

Brilliant premise; - he and his girl meet up for a date, hit it off well, but don't hook up; they leave separately and go to their respective homes, where they both wank whilst thinking about each other...

I just noticed his new album is called Solo Pleasure, but it's not about ~that~.

Lee626, Tuesday, 13 March 2018 12:31 (eight years ago)

Animal Collective actually don't have any songs about masturbation, they're just wank.

Lady Gaga - "Dancin' in Circles"

growing up in publix (morrisp), Friday, 21 September 2018 20:38 (seven years ago)

a good subthread or subtopic would be "songs that use dancing as a metaphor for masturbation"

flappy bird, Friday, 21 September 2018 20:45 (seven years ago)

This thread reminds me of myself as a kid, explaining sotto voce, to the counselor who ran the camp radio station, what the song "She Bop" was about (back when this was still relatively fresh information).

growing up in publix (morrisp), Friday, 21 September 2018 21:03 (seven years ago)

Toni Braxton’s “Another Sad Love Song”.

Or it could really be about obsessive radio listening during car drives, like it says on the tin, in which case I’m terribly sorry (as is the insistent drum pattern).

breastcrawl, Saturday, 22 September 2018 08:12 (seven years ago)

"Captain Jack," of course.

And for flappy bird, "Get Into the Groove":

I'm tired of dancing here all by myself / Tonight I want to dance with someone else.
