Lyrics That Sound Suggestive Out of Context

I mean, there are just scores.

"Ride on my train, O, my people."
"This people's got it and this people's spreading it around."

Personal favorites?

"Get ready for me, love, 'cause I'm a comer"

Especially when Lea Michele is singing screaming it.

He's a man
He's just a man
And I've had so many men before
In very many ways

The last line is supposed to be the start of a new sentence, which ends with "he's just one more," but the song structure makes it appear like it's ending the previous line, which suggests that Mary Magdalene has had sex with a lot of men in various positions.

^I always thought "in very many ways" does qualify the way Mary's had so many men before, rather than relating to how Jesus is just one more; although I don't think the very many ways Mary has had so many men before only refers only to the physical mechanics of her liaisons.

The Jerry Herman trilogy:

"I put my hand in there"
"Did he need a stronger hand?"
"Life is a celebration with you on my arm"

"And she draws you close
To her Giant breast,
And you know things now
that you never knew before,
Not till the sky."

From Evita: "Buenos Aires"

"Take me in at your flood, give me speed
Give me lights, set me humming
Shoot me up with your blood, wine me up
With your nights, watch me coming!"

If it weren't for the lyric immediately following that, which goes like this:

"All I want is a whole lot of excess
Tell the singer this is where I'm playing" [goes without saying she means playing a piano, or some other instrument. Not that I take that literally, but I bet lots of people do. *eye roll*]

Then it'd be safe to assume whorish Eva plans to become a drug addicted slutwhore as her life's ambition. Hooray!

From Carousel: "June Is Bustin' Out All Over!"

"But it's comin', by God
You can feel it come,
You can feel it in your heart
You can see it in the ground
You can see it in the trees
You can smell it in the breeze
Look around, look around, look around!
June is bustin' out all over!!!"

And the rest certainly doesn't help, neither does the fact the song is obviously about courting, which forces you to "go there."

So, yep. If you have a dirty mind like me, then you can't help imagining Nettie is a brothel mistress, the men the clientele, and the ladies women of the night.

And June is just some big ol' busty slut.

"Louis's art is not hard to swallow."

"Gentlemen now don’t be shy!
Not one man, no, nor ten men.
Nor a hundred can assuage me.
I will have you!"

A lot of these are just as suggestive in context and deliberately.

Broadway has a very dirty mind.
