Is Lovers Rock about Semen Retention?

The Buzzcocks are a great male first wave punk group that can sing about sex. Any others?

Does "Too Drunk to Fuck" count?

If you get an orgasm from rolling down the stairs...

Yeah, the lyrics are awkward, you can tell Strummer's not comfortable writing about sexuality. I can't think of another example he did beyond maybe Rabies From the Dogs of Love?

Every time Joe sings about sex, I die inside.

It really is disconcerting.

I could see them doing a sleazy cramps type song about sex with Paul on vocals. Honestly.

Nope.

I've wracked my head and while I can only think about their song about wanking, I feel like Generation X could have managed it?

Dancing with myself, indeed.

EDIT: yeah. Billy Idol could sing about sex.

The Damned has a few of those songs. Dead Boys are really good at singing about fucked up kinky sex. Case and point:

Also the utterly dreadful Sex Mad Roar.

Does Janie Jones count? It’s about a prostitute.

I don't think so. It's a song about mentally escaping the mundane world.

[Silent Majority]

Strummer sussed how to sing about sensuality at the end. Mondo Bongo doesn't get into carnality in the lyrics, which have his usual playfulness around the taste of language*, but the music and delivery make it his only successful reach into the topic.

*skeletons are selling / Model Ts in Massachussets "

I always thought it was about pleasing a woman orally?

What, by telling her you've done the dishes?

Heston.

Hell yes he could.

The thought of Jello Biafra having sex is even more disconcerting than the thought of Joe having sex.

Hello,

Am I so old I'm the only one who thought of this?



Elvis covered it - probably a few more I don't know/can't remember.

Hello,

Elvis C. It's pretty funny imagining Elvis P. singing "Love comes in spurts, baby!".
