I'll start off with, "Georgy Girl," by The Seekers. The central message is, "Hey Babe, you get a man if you dressed better." Don't tell Georgy how to dress, she's a grown-ass woman with agency.

I'm going to continue down this road (hahaha) with, "Vehicle," by Tom Jones. He literally offers a young lady candy to take a ride with him. What kind of white van with no windows are you driving here, sir? Stranger danger!

"She's only Seventeen"

Guns n’ Roses - "One in a Million"

Racism and homophobia. What a duo.

This thread delivers. I mean holy crap. Let's keep this going

Considering the song was written after they HAD to "kickstart his heart" because he went into cardiac arrest from an overdose? Yeah....

Run for your life by the Beatles

"Well, I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or I won't know where I am"

I mean, yeah Nikki Six did actually die. For a couple of minutes. Kids reading this: Don't inject vodka. Bad idea.

Special mention to bobalot for great stuff

Oh, man. That one hits home.

"Shout at the Devil", when considering the current administration in the united states

I still find it hilarious that "Shout AT the Devil" was one of the SatanicPanic's triggers.

But let's look at Poison's "I want Action"

Long legs and short skirts
A-these girls hit me where it hurts
I can't wait to get my hands on them
I won't give up until they give in

Now I'm not lookin' for a love that lasts
I need a shot and I, I need it fast
If I can't have her, I'll take her and make her!

OH!

PRINCE!!

"Darling Nikki"
"Little Red Corvette"

yeah.... let's see someone get those songs on a radio again.

Mr. Tinkertrain - Ozzy Osbourne

Would you like some sweeties little girl?
Come a little closer
I'm gonna show you a brand new world tonight
I've got a palace full of fantasy
Ready made just for you and me
Once you're there I'm gonna take you for a ride

It's only you sit down and read these lyrics, you realise how rapey so many of these bands were.

Like what the fuck?

In some of those bands mild defense, I've heard people call each other 'little boy'/'little girl', when both were adults, and even the one being called 'little' was older by more then a few years.

However, yes, taken as a blanket statement, some of those lyrics are 'wtf, dude!'

Silver Chair - Anthem of the year 2000.

The youth did not take the older generations fascism away.

Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It."

Not because of the content specifically, but because we all have collectively continued to take it.

It's easy to scream 'we're not gonna take it' when you have nothing to lose.

(Minor Digression; I see the point of this song's nomination) Y'know, Dee Snyder may have dressed like a transvestite clown in the 80s, but he has never stopped being a working musician with steady gigs for four decades and I've gotta respect that.

Valid point, though in the specific case of, "Mr. Tinkertrain," I think Ozzy was intentionally trying to evoke the horror of child molestation rather than glorify it. Man had kids, after all. Every parent's nightmare is fertile territory for a dark horror focused guy who has a personal stake in it.

I don't know. Lots of murderers and molesters had kids themselves.

Fair point. Who among us can know what ran through the head of a man who decapitated a bat with his teeth in front of thousands of people. He will remain an enigma. I was never molested as a child, but I know a lot of people who were and it was usually a family member. One of my exes started getting abused by her sister when she was 9 and the sister was 11, and you know that idea didn't just come out of nowhere.

Man, this thread took a hard left turn down a dark alley.

She was only nine years old. Jenny held her down and shoved a hairbrush into her. She'd wake up crying in the middle of the night 25 years later.

I tried my best to comfort her, but it was never enough. Jenny ran away from home two years later. There were obvious problems there.
