As we were driving in this morning Big Joe Turner popped up on the radio, belting "Shake, Rattle and Roll". This song is, of course, a peak moment in Western Civilization, and when we were about two-thirds through listening A said, "You know, I don't think I ever really listened to the lyrics of this song. It's kind of.... filthy." Yes, yes it is.

When I was a wee kid, 3 or 4, I had a favorite song that I loved when it came on the radio. I thought it was a happy, cheery song about happy, cheery things. I didn't really hear that song again until I was in my 20s and bought a 70s compilation with it on there. I listened to it, paid attention to the lyrics, and suddenly I realized how right I was that the song had been about happy, cheery things. The song? "Afternoon Delight".
