Comment:

It seems quaint now, but back in the 20th century songwriters expended a lot of ingenuity in engineering double-entendre lyrics that sounded suggestive but could be technically proven innocent;
(i.e. "I Didn't Like It the First Time" is *really* about spinach, & "Father Had a Big One" is *really* about his mustache, etc. ) Now it all seems touchingly innocent.

I've been looking for the music and lyrics to Please Don't Bang On The Piano for almost 25 years! How can I get a copy of this?

I am looking for lyrics to Cliff Ferre's "Ain't It a Beauty" but would also be interested in this whole mix. How do I do that?

Touchingly innocent, yes, but far more entertaining than most of the bands these days that just use the most blunt terms possible and leave nothing to the imagination. . .
