Good call on Cole Porter. Kiss Me Kate has a few winners, not straight up raunch but very edgy innuendo for its time.
Brush Up Your Shakespeare: “If your baby is pleading for pleasure, let her sample your measure for measure; if she says she won’t buy it or TIKE it, let her ‘tike’ it, what’s more, As You Like It!”(that wasn’t in the current revival, though.) “If she says your behavior is heinous, kick her right in the Coriolanus!”
Where is the Life That Late I Led: “And lovely Lisa, where are you, Lisa? You gave a new meaning to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.”
“Grease” isn’t terribly raunchy but has a few lines that should make anyone think twice before letting middle schoolers perform the songs. (My summer camp ran into this problem when I was 12 or so.) “Greased Lightning”, anyone?
Also, “Garlic” from “Dance of the Vampires” needs some kind of award for awkward raunch.
Another day, another dollar is the reality of my mentality. Otherwise, don't even bother.- TLC
