The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Listen to me baby, i'm tired of talkin' to myself You've
got a pair of jungle drums on you Oh and what a nasty
mix 42-24-36 When you drop dem bombshells the blood
goes Right out of my brain Let's make them bubbles
bump Now's the time to work the hump Let's dump the
sump pump Hey girl i'm talkin' to you 2 is the number
of the voodoo that you do My kinky twinkie is black
and blue Your pointer sisters are just too good to
be true She's got the hump Ain't talkin' bout your
rump Your busy front is pumpin' up my bass Got the
hump Dat viscious double bump De bump dat really thump
Clock dem mothers jumps Your busy front is jammin'
in my face Turn those mutha's out Pitched a tent in
my speedo's I squirt dessert and flirt with skirt
Holy toledo, twin torpedos,
my cub scout And rub my genie in the lamp until my
fingers hurt Cross your heart you're goin' strapless?
That's a pretty pearl necklace Drop your record on
my needle Stick my head between your speakers You remind
me of my mommy Can you use a melon bailer?
That's an awfully large pastrami I'm a 1-900 caller
Flovilla I'm your virile garbageman She's gof the
hump Ain't talkin' bout your rump Dat viscious double
bump Your busy front is pumpin' up my bass Got the
hump Clock dem mothers jumps De bump dat really thump
Your busy front is jammin' in my face Turn those mutha's out
got a pair of jungle drums on you Oh and what a nasty
mix 42-24-36 When you drop dem bombshells the blood
goes Right out of my brain Let's make them bubbles
bump Now's the time to work the hump Let's dump the
sump pump Hey girl i'm talkin' to you 2 is the number
of the voodoo that you do My kinky twinkie is black
and blue Your pointer sisters are just too good to
be true She's got the hump Ain't talkin' bout your
rump Your busy front is pumpin' up my bass Got the
hump Dat viscious double bump De bump dat really thump
Clock dem mothers jumps Your busy front is jammin'
in my face Turn those mutha's out Pitched a tent in
my speedo's I squirt dessert and flirt with skirt
Holy toledo, twin torpedos,
my cub scout And rub my genie in the lamp until my
fingers hurt Cross your heart you're goin' strapless?
That's a pretty pearl necklace Drop your record on

me of my mommy Can you use a melon bailer?
That's an awfully large pastrami I'm a 1-900 caller
Flovilla I'm your virile garbageman She's gof the

Your busy front is jammin' in my face Turn those mutha's out

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Obviously a sex song.
Great beat. Love it.
