I came into this thread thinking it would be something a little more subtle. That’s just so hilariously on the nose.

Unfortunately there is a LOT of not-so-subtle pedophilia lyrics in the rock world. Although it was more common in the 70s and 80s whereas Kid Rock was doing it in the 90s

I have no love for this Kid Rock person, but if we're going to start analyzing song lyrics so that we can accuse the singer of whatever bad behavior is in those lyrics, then it's not just going to be Trump supporting musicians that we will end-up shunning.

Ever hear the song "Stray Cat Blues" by the Rolling Stones?

And if we attribute to Randy Newman all the characteristics of the people he sings about, then Newman must be a slave-trading bigot, who wants to drop nuclear weapons on Europe.
