My favourite filthy Pulp songs are Babies, This Is Hardcore, His N Hers, Acrylic Afternoons and Sheffield Sex City

Stephen said in another thread he thought His n Hers was Pulp's filthiest song.

What do you think?

I don't agree, although I'll have to be all innocent and naive and admit I was never sure what 'shove it in sideways' meant... (it sounds filthy).

I've been listening to Apparently a lot, and started out thinking, oh this is a nice song! 

Then on my third listen the line 'You blew my cover then you blew my mind, now blow me slowly cause I need some time' jumped out at me as sounding obscene (but am I reading a filthy meaning into an innocent line?)

What's your favourite smutty line.

Has Jarvis ever shocked you with his lyrics?

Are there any lyrics you don't approve of?

I think there's a lot of naughty stuff on "His 'n' Hers". Doesn't get much dirtier than "I was stood in the queue when you came" which I always thought was a reference to group sex.

I thought he met her while he was doing his shopping... Like I say, so naive!

You do 'get' the song This is Hardcore, right...? :)

And where do you stand on the "you started getting fatter three weeks after I left you...I saw you at the doctors, waiting for a test..." line? Medical student taking exams after eating too much chocolate?

Surely, It's A Dirty World has gotta be up there and any of the Relaxed Muscle songs. The line in Party Hard 'he's just shed his load on your best party frock'. Oh, you could go on and on.

Yeah, Three Way Accumulator is a particularly good example, I think...

Oh, and of course "Hey mister! You have finally met your match / Now everybody wants to kiss my snatch"

"He doesn't care what it looks like, just as long as it's pink and it's tight."

With an honourable mention to the slight tweak to the lyrics of I Spy when they did it on MTV Most Wanted: "la la la la la la la la la la, in the midnight hour, la la la la la la la la la la, I will... come on you."

Nicely phrased to stop me answering "Candida's monologue on Sheffield: Sex City", Fred.

As far as shocking and offensive lyrics, the filthier the Pulp song the better, it's one of the reasons they are the band they are!

What about the hint of incest in Razzmatazz?

Mark Sturdy, I always thought 'pink and...tight' referred to either the lady's attire or to her, ahem, dutch cap. Are you thinking of something more biologically based?

And yes, of course, SSC itself. It is a very, very sexy song to listen to. Even sexier to see it live and thinking throughout "I am watching Pulp playing Sheffield: Sex City...and it is amazing". As jealous as I am of those who saw Back in LA, I'd still take SSC over that.

Never seen HNH and SSC live. This is something I must rectify

 I tried getting this played the other day as Steve Lamacq's National Anthem thingy. There was a story about a sale of some Banksy pictures along with the suggestion that the bubble was bursting in the contemporary art market (lost its razzamatazz, see), supported by the observation that one of Banksy's most well-known works here in Bristol is this picture painted on the outside of the sexual health clinic in Park St (I saw you at the doctor's, waiting for a test). Didn't play it though.

And TIH is about doing the filing, right, that goes in there, that goes in there??

I love that Banksy picture. I think it's probably my favourite. Hasn't it been saved by public vote?

 This is rather nostalgic in a way for those of us (like Jarvis) brought up on 70s family viewing. There was an awful lot of smut very cleverly blended into a lot of it. Mrs Slocombe's problems with her pussy getting wet all the time were right over my head when I was 10. And then there's the Two Ronnie's, that would be a whole book by itself. It's weird to think back now that I was watching all this stuff happily with my parents who clearly did know what was going on (well, my mum was a bit clueless), but were presumably secure in the (correct) belief that I hadn't a clue. So I take a similar attitude now with my kids and just cross my fingers and hope for the best when Red Dwarf or whatever is on. Or Top Gear, they haven't asked me to explain about ladies having crises yet!

I am hardly a prude, but I still get a little embarrassed every time I hear "...and how many others have touched themselves whilst looking at pictures of you". It's not just filthy, it's foul.

So Jarvis is a perv or an imaginary perv ? what do you think ?

(Razzmatazz is probably my fav filthiest song, being a teenage foreigner that was the song that made my realize they were really talking about sex ALL the time).

Fuss Free, I don't think that's foul. At least he's stating "touched themselves" rather than "shed his load" as on Party Hard or something!

As we all seem to be owning-up in the naievity stakes...Pencil Skirt's ''If you look under the bed I can see my house from here'' always puzzled me. He's not referring to an, er, position from behind is he?

 Are you telling me Razzmatazz isn't about someone becoming overweight (presumably after all the Milk Trays she has been eating) then going to the doctors to take a test for type II diabetes? I have been living a lie!

You're not Blind - "don't you know it's bad for your health, all the things you do to yourself". Frankly the whole song is a bit..hmm

My favourite filthy moment was Jarvis singing and that goes in there, etc whilst pointing in different strangely seedy ways on Top Of The Pops... At 7 pm on BBC 1! Only topped by Mos Def, Nate Dogg and Pharoah Monch singing Oh No on same show and somehow getting away with saying shit and nigga alot and somehow getting away without anyone noticing. Prefer the smut of TIH on family TV though. I was watching with my mum. It was excruciating.
