Shove It Right In Lyrics
She chooses all the clothes
she'll wear tonight to dance in
The places that she goes
Are filled with guys from groups
(yeah yeah yeah)
Waiting for a chance to break her pants in!
Provocative squats (x4)
Well, at least there's sort of a choice there.
Twenty or thirty at times, there have been.
Somewhat desirable boys there -
dressed really spiffy with long hair -
waiting for girls they can shove it right in!
[repeat previous stanza]
[ending of live performance:]
That's right
Shove it right in...
and pull it right out....
and shove it in again.
she'll wear tonight to dance in
The places that she goes
Are filled with guys from groups
(yeah yeah yeah)
Waiting for a chance to break her pants in!
Twenty or thirty at times, there have been.
Somewhat desirable boys there -
dressed really spiffy with long hair -
waiting for girls they can shove it right in!
That's right
Shove it right in...
and pull it right out....
and shove it in again.

This is the third part of the suite beginning with She Painted Up Her Face and continuing with Half A Dozen Provocative Squats. (The orchestral interludes on the 200 Motels album are not integral). Frank described it as an important piece of work lyrically speaking, because (in the second section) it took a moment to speculate on what might be motivating a groupie who - as the Shove It section establishes - is going to participate in an orgy.
BTW: "She finishes her call" is a quaint old euphemism for bodily functions. If she'd been finishing a "long call" she would have been shitting instead of pissing!
