Subject: M+M and racy lyrics
--> From: [me] --> Subject: Martha and the Muffins --> "do you suppose..." that being called "Martha and the Muffins" robbed --> the band of prominence on the new music scene? After all, where is the --> obligatory anal/phallic/political/medical/randomly-jarring reference? > certainly in the lyrics: > "Communication happens out on the floor > They dance until two, fuck until four..." > - ("What People do for Fun" -- _Danseparc_) > - Rob Preston <ihnp4!hound!hejira -- AT&T Bell Labs> Not fair. This is neither jarring nor representative. M+M has not used the verb "fuck" before or after. If fact, you're quoting a unique event in M+M's output: an explicitly sexual reference. Shame on you, as the saying goes. -- Marek marek@indiana.csnet ...!pur-ee!iuvax!marek
