"Innocuous" lyrics that are actually disturbing

The Drifters- Kissing In The Back Row of the Movies

Your mama says that through the week
You can't go out with me
But when the weekend comes around
She knows where we will be

Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies

Every night, I pick you up from school
Cause you're my steady date
But Monday to the Friday night
I leave you at the gate, yeah
You know, we can't have too much fun
'Til all your homework's done
But when the weekend comes
She knows where we will be, oh

Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together, baby
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies

Oh, I sit at home at night and watch TV
I still think of you
But Monday to the Friday night
We share a joke of two, yeah
You know, they don't knock on my door
At the Friday night for sure
But when the weekend comes
She knows where we will be, yeah

Kissin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you
Holdin' hands together, you and I
Holdin' hands together, baby
Smoochin' in the back row
Of the movies on a Saturday night with you, yeah
We could stay forever, you and I
We could stay forever, you and I
Huggin' and a kissin' in the back row of the movies



Lord Creator - Don't Stay Out Too Late

Oh little girl you have me in a rage
It's getting late and you are under age
Look at the time, it's after eight
And that's the end of our date
Your daddy said you shouldn't stay out late

You'd like to stay with me the whole night through
But that is not the proper thing to do
Very soon there'll come a day
When you can come to me to stay
But right now you must hear what daddy say
 
I come awake with a gift for womankind
You're still asleep but the gift don't seem to mind
Rise on this occasion, halfway up your back
Sliding down your body, touching your behind

You look so self-possessed
I won't disturb your rest
It's lovely when you're sleeping
But wide awake is best
 
There are 100s of old blues and RnB songs full of obvious and not-so-obvious double entendre, some well-known ones:

The Swallows - It Ain't the Meat it's the Motion

Bull Moose Jackson - My Big Ten Inch

etc

Lots more listed here

This song is based on a stalker who apparently used to watch women as they slept, in a town called Tyler in Texas.

Creepy lyrics but a great song.

What about the other way round? I've got a record of songs from the 50's called "my pussy belongs to daddy" that I bought for comedy value.

It's full of songs that are purposefully written to be double entendres but passable as innocent, I imagine it was quite daring for the time and it got it banned

Title track:

The Lords Prayer is particularly disturbing. Give him all the credit and blame him for nothing. And this doesn't address the narcissim. Imagine if parents demanded this from their children.

Sting should have been humanely put down after he wrote 'Russians'. That might be the worst song ever written by anyone.

"How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?"

Did no one ever think to tell him that every single word of that song is dreadful?

Sorry mate...I love that song...bit haunting each to their own
 

Aw, look at daddy's baby girl
That's daddy's baby, little sleepy head
Yesterday I changed your diaper
Wiped you and powdered you
How did you get so big?
Can't believe it, now you're two
Baby, you're so precious, daddy's so proud of you
Sit down, bitch! You move again, I'll beat the sh1t out of you! (Okay!)

Don't make me wake this baby!
She don't need to see what I'm 'bout to do!
Quit crying, bitch! Why do you always make me shout at you?!
How could you just leave me and love him out the blue?!
Oh, what's the matter, Kim? Am I too loud for you?
Too bad, bitch! You're gonna finally hear me out this time!
At first I'm like, "Aight, you wanna throw me out? That's fine!"
But not for him to take my place, are you out your mind?!
This couch, this TV, this whole house is mine!
How could you let him sleep in our bed?! Look it, Kim!
Look at your husband now! (No!) I said look at him!
He ain't so hot now, is he?
Little punk!
(Why are you doing this?!) Shut the **** up! (You're drunk!)
(You're never gonna get away with this!) You think I give a ****?!
Come on! We're going for a ride, bitch! (No!) Sit up front!
(We can't just leave Hailie alone, what if she wakes up?)
We'll be right back, well, I will, you'll be in the trunk

So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you
So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you

You really ****ed me, Kim, you really did a number on me!
Never knew me cheating on you would come back to haunt me
But we was kids then, Kim, I was only eighteen
That was years ago, I thought we wiped the slate clean
That's ****ed up! (I love you!) Oh God, my brain is racin'
(I love you!) What are you doing? Change the station!
I hate this song! Does this look like a big joke? (No!)
There's a [four]-year-old little [boy]
Laying dead with a slit throat in your living room!
Ha-ha! What, you think I'm kiddin' you?!
You loved him, didn't you? (No!)
bull****, you bitch! Don't F***ing lie to me!
What the ****'s this guy's problem on the side of me?
**** you, asshole! Yeah, bite me!
Kim? Kim! Why don't you like me?
You think I'm ugly, don't you? (It's not that!) No, you think I'm ugly
(Baby!) Get the **** away from me! Don't touch me!
I hate you! I hate you! I swear to God, I hate you!
Oh my God, I love you! How the **** could you do this to me?!
(I'm sorry!) How the **** could you do this to me?!

So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you
So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you

Come on, get out! (I can't! I'm scared!)
I said get out, bitch! (Let go of my hair! Please don't do this, baby! Please! I love you! Look, we can just take Hailie and leave!)
**** you!
You did this to us! You did it! It's your fault!
"Oh my God, I'm crackin' up" Get a grip, Marshall!
Hey, remember the time we went to Brian's party
And you were, like, so drunk that you threw up all over Archie?
That was funny, wasn't it? (Yes)
That was funny, wasn't it?! (Yes!)
See, it all makes sense, doesn't it?
You and your husband have a fight, one of you tries to grab a knife
And during the struggle he accidentally gets his Adam's apple sliced (No!)
And while this is going on, his son just woke up
And he walks in, she panics, and he gets his throat cut
(Oh my God!) So now they both dead
And you slash your own throat
So now it's double homicide and suicide with no note
I shoulda known better when you started to act weird
We coulda— hey, where you going? Get back here!
You can't run from me, Kim! It's just us, nobody else
You're only making this harder on yourself!
Ha-ha, gotcha! Go ahead, yell!
Here, I'll scream with you, "Ah! Somebody help!"
Don't you get it, bitch? No one can hear you!
Now shut the **** up, and get what's comin' to you!
You were supposed to love me!
Now bleed, bitch, bleed! Bleed, bitch, bleed! Bleed!

So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you
So long, bitch, you did me so wrong
I don't wanna go on
Living in this world without you

I’m not sure those lyrics fit the criteria of innocuous 🤣

And Save Your Kisses For Me, by Brotherhood of Man. Yuk.

This one has always got me, from Satisfaction, and I've never seen it referenced anywhere, so maybe it's just me:

When I'm ridin' 'round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl, who tells me
Baby, better come back maybe next week
Can't you see I'm on a losing streak?

She's on her period, isn't she?


And talking of the Stones:

Under my thumb
It's a squirmin' dog who's just had her day
Under my thumb
A girl who has just changed her ways
It's down to me
Yes it is
The way she does just what she's told down to me
The change has come
She's under my thumb
 
This is one of my favourite songs, but I still can't figure out how the actual meaning of the lyrics(I think that was the intended purpose by Elvis Costello)

Nice girls, not one with a defect
Cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct
Red dogs under illegal legs
She looks so good that he gets down and begs
She is watching the detectives
Ooh, he's so cute
Watching the detectives
Oh, when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops start
But he can't be wounded when he's got no heart
Long shot at that jumping sign
Invisible shivers running down my spine
Cut to baby taking off her clothes
Close-up of the sign that says, "We never close"
He snatched at you and you match his cigarette
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take
She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake
She is watching the detectives
Ooh, he's so cute, she is watching the detectives
Oh, when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops start
But he can't be wounded when he's got no heart
You think you're alone until you realize you're in it now
Fear is here to stay, love is here for a visit
They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit
Someone's scratching at the window, I wonder who is it
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents why
Ready to hear the worst
About their daughter's disappearance though it
Nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
Watching the detectives
Don't get cute
Watching the detectives
I get so angry when the teardrops start
But you can't be wounded when you got no heart
Just like watching the detectives
Watching the detectives
Watching the detectives
