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.
Mal: How come you didn't turn on me, Jayne? Jayne: Money wasn't good enough. Mal: What happens when it is? Jayne: Well... that'll be an interesting day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Now I wish I'd had a prom! I want a prom theme!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think it's safe to say that any pop song about putting anything into anything else is actually about Doing It.

I rode my bicycle past your window last night
I roller skated to your door at daylight
It almost seems that you're avoiding me
I'm ok alone but you've got something I need
Well, I've gotta brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I think that we should get together
And try them out ya see
I've been lookin' around a while
You got somethin' for me
Oh, I gotta brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car
Don't go too fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don't drive I've been all around the world
Some people say I've done all right for a girl
Oh yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah-yeah

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
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.
So how about "Push Push (in The Bush)" or "Push It"? Playground roughhousing?
