When DP played this song in concert about 15 years ago, Ian Gillan did a "jerkoff" motion with his hand while singing the line "the log was in my pocket". Classic.
Also, I always though the lyrics were a "common cunnilinguist" rather than a "common cunning linguist".
It is absolutely "cunning linguist." It's a pun. And it sets up the next line with the "master of many tongues."

The wordplay makes it clever. And radio-friendly.

Now if someone can explain the references to the Austin and the Bentley, besides the fact that they're cars that would be driven by someone in the aristocracy. (Which makes it a little unlikely that this would take place in a strip club.)

I don't think the make of the cars are as important as much as when he refers that "now she eases gently"......meaning that her ass could be tender when sitting, and she very may feel refreshed and "young" after a good shagging.
Obviously the two cars are well known in British aristocracy as you mentioned.

It IS "common cunnilinguist". This site had it wrong. With the song's subject matter, what else could it be?
