Paedo Lyrics

'Show me the way, to the next little girl
Oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why'


Doors

Technically it's a Bertold Brecht poem put to music by Kurt Wiell. As Brecht was a marxist, I think it's about the decadence of America rather than a peon to underage girls and whisky.

*eta* although Morrison may not have quite grasped that .

it's from this opera
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aufstieg_und_Fall_der_Stadt_Mahagonny
and technically it's a libretto by Brecht...
if you find it interesting you should listen/read up on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Threepenny_Opera
by them. Ace jazz influenced opera about a corrupt London. What's not to like about an opera which starts 'It is London, the whores are whoring, the thieves are thieving', and where the main character is an amoral bastard. Despite the Rat Pack's turning of Mack the Knife from 'he's an evil cunt' into 'hey, he's a wiseguy'.

ZZ Top: "Francine"

My Francine just turned thirteen,
Shes my angelic teenage queen.
And I love her, shes all that I want.
And I need her, shes all that I need.
And I love her, shes all that I want.
And I need her, shes all that I need.
And I love her, shes all that I want.
And I need her, shes all that I need.

Iggy Pop: "Dogfood"

I'm hanging around that same old scene
My girlfriend Betsy she's just fourteen
There's nothing better for me to do
I'm living on dog food
