Even if they didn't mean it this way, I don't get why more people aren't reading innuendo into "#Lollipop" by the #Chordettes
TBH, it isn't even innuendo. It seems to just be a near-literal reading. (Like with "wand"->"penis" in #harrypotter)
According to the lyrics, the #lollipop is "Sweeter than candy on a stick". But a literal lollipop IS candy on a stick. So they must be talking about something else...
Crazy way he thrills me, tell you why
Just like a lightning from the sky
He loves to kiss me till I can't see straight
Thrill and kiss are obv code. "A" lightning makes no sense. But if code for a sex act?
Flous 
@davidr Tsk tsk Dave. Lightning is obvious.
@lgeurts I agree, it is. What I'm marveling at is that there seems to be no discussion about it online. Or maybe it's SO obvious nobody bothers?
Sharon Gibson Morgan@SharonGibson3 @davidr Probably that's a reason too Sharon. PS. Don't know 60 minute man.
@lgeurts @davidr *60-Minute Man *is a 1951 song by Billy Ward and the Dominoes. (The late Ed Bradley, a correspondent for the CBS News magazine, 60 Minutes, frequently performed the song at various venues, incl. The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, and with Jimmy Buffett & The Coral Reefer Band.)
The protagonist maintains he can last for an hour in bed and breaks down what happens and how long over the course of an hour.

@SharonGibson3 @davidr Damn, I never thought it was like that in the 50's.
@SharonGibson3 @davidr Long time since I had the joy of reading that. I can only imagine how it was when he did that, the book itself is already satirical at its best, let alone him talking in old English.
You know your stuff Sharon, bit in awe.

@lgeurts @davidr I went to a Catholic high school; many of our lay teachers were pretty cool. My art teacher allowed us to play songs on the record player during art class. So, we're drawing, painting and whatnot while listening to albums by Carole King and James Taylor. We even listened to the soundtrack from* Hair *with the warning, "If one of the nuns comes in here, you turn that record off!" 😀
@SharonGibson3 @davidr Have to go to bed, 5AM long drive ahead. Sure hope we will have this kind of chats more!
