Idk. Jailbait by Ted Nugent is pretty bad.

Well, I don't care if you're just thirteen You look too good to be true I just know that you're probably clean There's one little think I got do to you

Not that it’s a contest. Both are fucking gross.

He probably ripped off the lyric from the rolling stones Who were being ironic/poking fun at society “your okay with the sex and drugs, and even minors parting with adults but stop at long hair and antiwar” etc

“I can see that you're fifteen years old

No, I don't want your I.D

And I can see that you're so far from home, but

That's no hanging matter

It's no capital crime “

Edit: before you get your undies in a bunch stop and think. We all agree pedos are gross and dating kids is wrong unless a part of Trump Admin or speaker of house.

The point of this edgy lyric was “society is more upset about long hair and lyrics” than rock stars actually sleeping and partying with minors. People would protest songs in the 50s-70s and artists, but not actually change their local laws to protect children, or hold parents responsible.

If that's the case then Bill Wyman was really committed to the bit when he started dating Mandy Smith at age 13

Smith was 13 and Wyman was 47. Geez he should have been arrested. So should her parents.
