Pink Thing Lyrics

Cover art for Pink Thing lyrics by XTC

Look, anyone who thinks this is about a father and his newborn baby, how does "So why is it I'm happy when there's tears down in your eye?" fit that explanation? This song is about his penis. And there is NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. There's nothing perverse about it. There's nothing remotely similar between this song and Gary Glitter's obsession with kiddie porn and underage girls. NOTHING. THAT's more of a "get your mind out of the gutter" type of thing.
