This song is incredablly oblique and I have no idea what it means, much less how it would have fit into the 1984 musical. All the gay slang and werid sexual discussion makes it a little surprising first time you hear it. The guy in the liner notes for the speacil edition of Diamond Dogs, in which a second disc that has this song on it is included, calls it "one of the the flithest songs in rock history" which strikes me as a very naive thing to say. Anyway, Bowie's vocals sound nice on this one, I like the piano stuff, and it's pretty darn catchy. Not that I understand it.
