I was reading an article in Paste last night on Of Montreal’s latest album, Skeletal Lamping (out tomorrow), and they were talking about how sexual the lyrics are on it. So listening to the album today for the first time i have to say it’s even more so than I could imagine, not that there is anything wrong with that. Seems Mr. Barnes is channeling some early Prince. Enjoying the album a lot.

UPDATE:  Here is the article in Paste i was referring to.  Some interesting tidbits in here including Barnes’ love of ESPN and other ‘”normal” things.

Here are some samples of the lyrics:

When we get together
It’s always hot magic

we can do it softcore if you want
but you should know i take it both ways

I wanna turn you on
I wanna make you cum
Two-hundred times a day

I took her standing in the kitchen ass against the sink

I’m so sick of sucking the dick of this cruel cruel city
I’ve forgotten what it takes to please a woman
But that’s all gonna change

Maybe I’ll blow you
Whatever kind of kisses you want
Because you’ve got so much in common
With my big cock creator

Turning tricks on the hood of Jasmine’s car
That whole summer was really just too peculiar
You know I would of given it up to almost anybody
That had a little money and was sweet to me

Lover face, I’ll do you as the
Revolver introduced in my play, act one
Lover face, want to make you ejaculate
Until it’s no longer fun

I confess to really being quite charmed
By your feminine effects
You’re the only one
With whom I would role play Oedipus Rex

I want you to be my pleasure puss
I want to know what it’s like to be inside you
I want you to be my pleasure puss
I want to know how it feels
Want to give you that ou ou la la ou la la

Lover face, how your ass is pumping
Sweet licentious songs. lover face
You’re a scandal, your body is so wrong, wrong

Bless my lips with your Sunlandic kisses.
While our hands explore each other’s human vessels
Whoa, you know, like four excited spiders

You only like him because he’s sexually appealing
But I read his journal, it was very revealing
He fucked your sister in an elevator junior year
Oh yeah, oh yeah
And let your brother suck him but then beat him
So he could prove he wasn’t queer
Oh no
So what do you think he has in store for you my dear?

Still they love you at the office because you’ve been
The subject of countless masturbation fantasies

Can’t help it if it’s true, don’t wanna be your man, just wanna play with you
I can’t help it if it’s true, don’t wanna be your man, I just want to play with you

and LAST but certainly not LEAST, the hysterically random:

Ahh!
Ninjas!
