Because it's far worse than "WBUL." The lyrics include the words/phrases "cheatin' lovers," "cousins that marry," "hermaphrodite," "slut," "crack ho," "she-male," "free-for-all," "stripper," "implants," "lap dance," "slutfest," "trailer trash," "nymphomaniac," "crack" (again), "sex change," "Siamese twins" (they prefer to be called "conjoined twins"), "transvestite," "KKK," "gay Jewish black dude," "sleepin' with" (which is followed by multiple references to bestiality), "bitch," "drag queen," and "porn star." And still you're getting all worked up about a few "subtle innuendos" in "WBUL."
I never got 'worked up' about anything, and especially not WBUL.
That's actually what I was pointing out. So many people got worked up over so little.
Funny thing, I WAS going to bring up 'Jerry Springer' in my original post up there,
but I was afraid of the post running way too long.
The difference between Jerry Springer and WBUL, though, is Al was just singing about what's usually
on the Jerry Springer show.
I never said Al was entirely, purely innocent, he of course poked fun at stuff like this pretty bluntly.
WBUL, however, was Al
himself (as a character, to be exact- "the dude with the really lame pickup lines") directly telling the listener (the woman) all the innuendoes- both subtle and a bit more obvious.
I thought maybe people saw that difference and took it a little bit too seriously, so I wanted to offer a theory as to why it might have shocked them so much.
That's all. o.o Didn't mean to start anything.
