A lap dance is so much better when..."

"I had picked up this hitchhiker that was sweatin' gallons through a pair of Daisy Duke cut-offs and one of those Fruit Of The Loom tank-tops. Well, that night I lost myself to ruby red lips, milky white skin and baby blue eyes. Name was Russell.

Yes, a lap dance is so much better when the stripper's cryin'."

Jessica's Analysis
Oh, jeez, this song. It's difficult to not laugh at this outrageous song, but I know that I personally always feel dirty after it gets through. If you read the full lyrics, all the way to the end, you'll know why. Funny song, but I digress. Here's the breakdown: The character is very lonely and... sexually deprived. He reminisces about his last "encounter" involving a hitchhiker named Russell. After the chorus, he goes out and gets himself a prostitute. Her name is Bambi. He makes several very lewd and vulgar remarks based on her name among other things before they part ways. A few days later, he sees Bambi staring at him from the back of a milk carton. (Missing children's pictures are printed on the back of milk cartons.) He finishes the song out with a chorus.

Please understand that my opinion doesn't have to be yours. If you disagree, strike up a conversation about it! That's the design of the Project. We'll all learn a little somethin'.
