Sounds like back door love, to me.
He's equal opportunity:
Uh, ah-oh-oh! I went downtown,
I saw Miss Brown;
She had brown sugar
All over her booga-wooga.
I think I might join the fun,
But I had to hit and run.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am still bitter about the Prom Committee political brou-ha-ha that led to my prom song NOT being "Let's Chill" by Guy. Seriously.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"I'm glad I'm a man, and so is Lola."
There's also, "Girls will be boys and boys will be girls / It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola."
Which you could interpret two ways too, I suppose - but then when you look at the song as a whole I think the conclusion is inescapable.
Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
and
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Holly Woodlawn, about whom "Walk on the Wild Side" was written, is the guest of honor at an event we're holding at my theatre in September. I'm kinda psyched to meet her.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
What did you think it was about before? Or did you just never think about it? (I've missed song lyric double-entendres by not thinking about the lyrics.)
Never thought about it.

tommyrot, is that the "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates; you've got a brand new key" song?
Yep.
I just listened to it now (it's on my iPod). Fun.

Also, I've never paid attention to the lyrics of "Brand New Key", but I had no idea it was about anything other than rollerskates and keys.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
There was a HUGE scandal about our class trying to have "Nights In White Satin" by the Moody Blues as our prom theme, because the title was too sexual. @@

If it is about more than rollerskates and keys, it now makes sense that Rollergirl listened to it during her first romp with Dirk in Boogoe Nights.

Now I wish I'd had a prom! I want a prom theme!
