And the way he sings it is totally
unsexy. The original is breathy and sung in agony, as if he's addicted to...the girl he's singing to.

Most disturbing for me was from "Why Does This..."
There was a 12-car pile-up, everybody dead
And I saw brains and guts and vital organs splattered everywhere
As well as my friend Robert's disembodied head
...
Well, I told him I was busy, but he still just kept on asking
So I turned around and stabbed him in the face
Oh, and wouldn't you know it? My knife got stuck
I guess that's probably bound to happen now and then
But I'm afraid I may have bent the tip a little
And I know that blade will never ever be quite as sharp again
Great sounding song, but lyrics make me want to skip in around company.
Wanna B Ur Lovr is definately a riske topic, but it's humorous enough that I would have no problem playing it around my mother.

QUOTE Gotta go with JS, the only song where Al has used the words KKK, slut, gay, crack ho, transvestite, shemale... I think. That's not the normal Al explicit stuff, usually just blood and gore and inuendos.
he uses "slut" in gump, also

Oh yea, but I still think using all those words together makes it the most controversial song Al's ever done. I love how Al can be just as controvercial as aritists like Eminem, and never even really cursing besides more immpolite words like those ones.

I voted Trigger Happy, since it DOES celebrate guns and violence... or was that Death Row?
I personally think it's funny, but most others probably wouldn't.

"Gay" is used in Couch Potato.

And he actually got to sing that word on the Disney outlet "Safety Patrol." Yet somehow, hitting on a queen gets censored.
Where's the choice for "The Saga Begins?" Radio Disney thinks that's pretty controversial.

I'll always believe that gratuitous violence is more controversial than sexual innuendo. It's weird that society-at-large doesn't feel this way. So, my vote is for "other" Good Old Days.

El, maybe gratuitous sex is considered more controversial than gratuitous violence because the former is a more popular temptation than the latter. If somebody actually perpetrates some gratuitous violence in real life, all of a sudden the depictions of it do get controversial.
