Offensive lyrics are worldwide phenomenon.
Music after all is a basic form of self expression.
Running parallel to the use of offensive lyrics you’ll discover the obligatory list of ‘Offensive Song Titles’.
Titles, that leave nothing to the imagination as to where the song is leading.
Titles, you’d half expect to find scrawled on the back of a year nines school book.
Titles, that assured the song would be buried on B side of some obscure EP.
Titles, which doubtless had the Broadcasting Standard Authority frothing at the mouth.
One thing my research showed, was the assumption New Zealand's ‘Offensive Song Titles’ are the sole prerogative of a bunch of black t-shirted bogan metallers from New Plymouth – is infact wrong!
A song penned by Chris Knox making the list is hardly surprising in itself. But even I have more hair than this guy.
Phil Judd penned ‘Mind Fucked’ last year and will be eligible for a pension in a decade.
Cripes, even grandmother's favourite son Eddie Low went close to an entry, with ‘I’ve never been to bed with an Ugly Woman’.
And as much as I’d have like to have include ‘Nice Legs shame about the Face’ by The Car Thieves, I’m sure you’ll concur the songs below tipped the ‘offensive meter’ well into the red zone.
A Handful Of Dust’s ‘He who eats the maggots of the Palm Tree’ also went close.
As did Lungs ‘Elvis Arsehole’ and ‘Aren’t I a Dickhead’ by Indulgence.
You’ll also spot a cross-over factor between bands with unusual & offensive names (refer previous blog entry below) penning a fair splattering of abhorrent song titles.
After formulating a starting line-up of 60 odd songs I whittled it down to the 15 you find below.
It was a tough thankless job, but someone had to do it.

My mother helped me out.
