Odes to Onanism


Why did the 80's spawn so many songs about masturbation? Are people still penning tunes about it today? If so, I can't think of any.








Billy Idol's, "Dancing With Myself."
Prince's, "Darling Nikki"
Violent Femmes', "Blister In The Sun."
Tori Amos's, "Icicle."
Devo's, "Praying Hands."
The Pixies', "Holiday Song.
Cyndi Lauper's, "She Bop."
The Vapors', "Turning Japanese."

And the list goes on...

is it true that the Beatle's I want to hold your hand was written from the perspective of a penis?

Dude, I think you're cool, but you betray your age by being out of touch with popular music. Check out green day http://www.lyricsfreak.com/g/green+day/longview_20062700.html must have heard of them.
