I'm offended at one of their songs.


Let's just go through the lyrics:

Bomb-Bomb-Bomb-Bomb Bomb Iran
Bomb-Bomb-Bomb-Bomb Bomb Iran
Bomb Iran
Take my hand
Bomb Iran
You got me rockin' and a rollin'
Rockin' and a reelin'
Bomb Iran
Bomb-Bomb-Bomb Bomb Iran

I do not condone any of these terrible activities. The Beach Boys should have their surfboards taken away and cancelled.

And don't get me started on Good Vibrators.

Well, they admitted that they get around.

This is THE Beach Boys song to be offended by:-

Hey, little tomboy, sit here on my lap
I got things that I gotta tell you
No more skateboards, put away your baseball mitt.
Your rough livin' days are through
You could find places to go
You could see that boys love you so
They're doin' it all over the world
Hey little hey little hey little tomboy
Time to turn into a girl
Hey little hey little hey little tomboy
They're doin' it all over the world
Hey, little tomboy, I've had my eyes on you
Thinkin' what a girl you could be
Mmm, I smell perfume, let's try some cut-off jeans
Look at all the changes I see
I'm gonna teach you to kiss
You're gonna feel just like this
They're doin' it all over the world
Hey little hey little hey little tomboy
Time to turn into a girl
Hey little hey little hey little tomboy
They're doin' it all over the world
I'm gonna make you a girl
(Hey little hey little hey little tomboy)
You'd make a beautiful girl
(Hey little hey little hey little tomboy)
They're doing it all over the world


They should literally be jailed for this...

> They're doing it all over the world

Why?

The lyrics are correct, they're doing it all over the world.
What do you think Islam is all about.
Or the socialization around gender in virtually every country in the world.
With the exception of perhaps the imaginary Themyscira?
That's kind of the theme song for most human societies ...

I am not disagreeing or agreeing with, saying I like the
song or I don't like the song, I've never heard this before
in my life and I wonder if it is real, and what it was supposed
to be about?

reply

It's a real song, and I can see why it's been forgotten. I'd never heard it either.

Creepy as all fuck!

Creepy as all fuck!

Not helped by the jingle bells in the background!

reply

Both the message and the simplicity of the lyrics are terrible.

reply

Cute song. People didn't used to get their sphincters in a knot over silly stuff like this.

reply

Yeah, people in the 70s did seem to be more accepting of paedos like Seville, etc.

reply

You should have your troll license revoked, but I guess if you had a valid one you would not be a troll.

reply

How am I a troll? Can't you tell I'm not being serious?

reply

So, you are saying trolls are serious then?

reply

They try to sound serious, but what they're saying is so incredibly stupid. I said the Beach Boys should have their surfboards taken away. I think that tells you that I was joking.

reply

Yeah, obvious, but why?

reply

It's just a joke. "Barbara Ann" sounds like "bomb Iran".

reply

Tell it to John McCain.
