"I got the butter for your muffin" Yeah, I love Graffiti Bridge movie, so what? ''Oooooooooooh Montreal, say it!''
If you can't be nice to someone on the net, you probably ain't worth much talking to in real life either. | |

I always considered Diamonds & Pearls to be a metaphor for his career, not an actual love song to a woman. My Legacy

Well, considering loveseats don't swivel, yours makes much more sense. | |

That lyric is actually from Soft and Wet, his first single off For You, the fact he says it so early on, clearly lets us all know, that sex is going to be a big part of this man's musical agenda.
A much more recent one and his deliberately great sexual metaphor is from the song 3121, "Drink champagne from a glass with chocolate handles" [Edited 6/7/11 19:14pm] Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name | |

I get most of the metaphors here, but this one... I thought it was a loose reference to Willy Wonka and decadence, as in
There are too many to remember but the one that I've always loved: "Temptation Temptation... "Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion" -- Martha Graham | |

Champagne = semen, jizz the glass is a penis, and the handles are testicles she holds on to, while she is giving him a blow job. Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name | |

Sometimes you guys are reading way too much in a lyric than what's there. A victim of an over active imagination. I'm not saying ALL of these examples are wrong. Just a couple, IMHO.
That 3121 "chocolate handles" lyric I just don't believe is sexual. The "cookies without the milk" one in U Will Be is not about ejaculation. It's just an analogy saying the girl with whoever she's with is no a match. They just don't go together. Like peanut butter without the jelly. The ham without the burger. | |

I don't know if this counts as a metaphor, but it's definitely word play and I think it's clever:
"Bouncing on the Summer Spring and when U start 2 Fall
Love it. I could read you poetry and then we could make a story of our own. | |

It may not be "the best" but probably the entire song "Delirious" is a sexual metaphor. I always felt the sex/car metaphor connected LRC and Delirious wonderfully on the 1999 album.
