Reading the "Songs about sex" thread made me think...when you get down to it, there really aren't any songs that are not about love/lust/romance in some way.

Post a song (lyrics would help, too) that you think is sex free. I guarantee that it is not.

Songs have to be main-stream, not kiddie tunes or songs from a musical. C'mon people, let's see what you can do.

dylanmarsh

pretty much any Public Enemy song.

BigGov

A lot of 2pac, a lot of Atmosphere, a lot of Eminem, a lot of Beastie Boys, a lot of DMX

I have a minimum of 500 songs that are completely love free.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"

Soundgarden

Spoonman

Feel the rhythm with your hands
Steal the rhythm while you can, Spoonman
Speak the rhythm on your own
Speak the rhythm all alone, Spoonman

Spoonman, come together with your hands
Save me, I'm together with your plan
Save me

All my friends are Indians
All my friends are brown and red, Spoonman
All my friends are skeletons
They beat the rhythm with their bones,
Spoonman

Feel the rhythm with your hands
Steal the rhythm while you can, Spoonman

Thank you, good night people

(Music/Lyrics: Cornell)

Ladies and Gentleman, I give you Anal Cunt:

"Face It, You're a Metal Band"

you're not fucking hardcore, you're not avant garde
you're not punk rock, you're just a fucking retard
you're not something special, you're not something new
you're not fucking good, face it you're a metal band

"I Noticed That You're Gay"

i saw you buying a pearl jam record,and i noticed that you're gay
i saw you hanging around in allston,and i noticed that you're gay
i saw you riding around on your rollerblades,and i noticed that you're gay
i saw you getting your tongue pierced,and i noticed that you're gay
i heard you spend all day on the internet,and i noticed that you're gay
i saw you drinking a frappucino,and i noticed that you're gay
i saw you wearing a fucking tree shirt,and i noticed that you're gay
you've got a tribal tattoo, and i noticed that you're gay

I remember when I was about 8 (this would be around 1986) I remember thinking that every single song on the radio was about love or sex. I would actually try to listen to a song not about love and sex because as an 8 year old I couldn't relate, yet I believe I failed in my quest.

How about "Mexican Radio" by Wall of Voodoo. No sex there!
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older
Turn the switch and check the number
Leave it on when in bed I slumber
I hear the rhythms of the music
I buy the product and never use it
I hear the talking of the dj
Can't understand just what does he say?

I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio

I dial it in and tune the station
They talk about the u.s. inflation
I understand just a little
No comprende--it's a riddle

I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio

I wish I was in Tiajuana
Eating barbequed iguana
I'd take requests on the telephone
I'm on a wavelength far from home
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
I dial it in from south of the border
I hear the talking of the dj
Can't understand just what does he say?

Radio radio...

Ladies and Gentlemen, I open the Vault of 60's Protest Songs. There are WAY too many to count that have nothing to do with love/sex.

I just finished listening to one:

Butterfly Boucher - Another White Dash

How about nearly anything by Rush? Here's one:

Tom Sawyer

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean mean pride.

Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river

What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide

Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you

No his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is

What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide

Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day

God damn. What hell is Geddy Lee talking about, anyway? I still don't understand the Rush following.

bltzkriegmcanon

Almost every song by Manowar ever. Not fucking one of them I've listened to mentions romance or sex or anything like that. All of them inspire gallantry though. Or just slaughtering your enemy.

If that's not mainstream enough for you, then I call upon Metallica. There are very few songs by Metallica that I've heard that deal with any of the subject matter that you speak of.

most if not all of primus.
"too many puppies" comes to mind as a start heres the lyrics for this one
"Too many puppies are being shot in the dark.
Too many puppies are trained not to bark.
At the sight of blood that must be spilled so that
We may maintain our oil fields.
Too many puppies
Too many puppies are taught to heal.
Too many puppies are trained to kill.
On the command of men wearing money belts that buy
mistresses sleek animal pelts.
Too many puppies.

Too many puppies with guns in their hands.
Too many puppies in foreign lands.
Are dressed up sharp in suits of green and
Placed upon the war machine.
Too many puppies are just like me.
Too many puppies are afraid to see.
The visions of the past brought to life again,
Too many puppies, too many dead men."
Bad Religion
misfits
some Pearl Jam, brain of j and do the evolution come to mind
Rage against the Machine are among other bands that dont see about sweet loving either

Halx

About 96% of all EBM/Industrial songs are NOT about sex. As sexually oriented as I am, though, I favor that music way more than any other.

WWIII - KMFDM

I declare war on the world
War in outer space
I declare war in a nutshell
War all over the place

I declare war on every government
War against all odds
I declare war on your inner sanctum
On your blood thirsty gods

I declare war on the axis of morons
All out war on complacent consent
I declare war on the war against drugs
Rape and Slaughter of the innocent

War on big brother
Warmongers and profiteers
War on your dogma dubya
Armageddon's engineers

War in a heartbeat
I declare war on so-called civilization
World trade globalization
Organized desinformation

War on ambassadors of pretense
War on MTV and CNN
Macdonald's walt disney and bethlehem
On christina britney and eminem

I declare war on the world of anti-choice
On violent unilaterality
On the amassment of murderous high-tech toys
And all crimes against humanity

War on the moral majority
On corparate.com imperialism
On mindlessly bumbling stupidity
And police-state terrorism

Worldwar three - be all that you can be

any system of a down or rage against the machine. off hand i can't think of any of there song that are about love and sex.

pinkie

LOVE YER BRAIN

Sometimes I don’t know what to think about the world
When this guy is burnin’ up in the street with gasoline
And the flames show no mercy
So when you really need someone to talk to you
It doesn’t always work like it’s supposed to

You can love yer brain
Even if it slips down the drain
Man, I’m not no drug addict
But a person’s gotta have something
To keep him from going insane

Well, this man kills this other man
Who’s killed this other man, so it’s okay
And this fourteen year old’s sittin’ in the electric chair
Smilin’ and smokin’ a cigarette
So I guess I was right all along readin’ mad magazine

The Flaming Lips

brandon11983

any Autechre song ever composed.

Nirvana - Something In The Way
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings

(x3)
Something in the way, mmm
Something in the way, yeah, mmm
