An interesting bit of trivia: Motorhead's lyrics are very clean

Hardly any expletives to be found in the studio recordings of Motorhead's songs, which can be surprising considering their image.

I actually can't think of a single studio Motorhead song with anything worse than 'arse', and even that is limited.

Brave New World has fricking in it, other than that can't think of much else.

You must not be that familiar with Motorhead then.

One More fricking Time

Okay you win. It does exist. I guess the somewhat large portion of the catalog I listen to is clean.

I understand. I have 17 Motorhead albums on my phone, so I hear more of their catalog on a regular basis, most likely.

Even if there's no profanity in a song, often times there is a good bit of double entendre or lasciviousness. Lemmy was a damn fine lyricist and a master at a turn of phrase.
