Not trying to make this a debate about what is morale. But I always think it's funny when holy rollers are jamming to songs that should be semi-objectionable according to their standards.

A couple that come to mind.

That Summer - Garth Brooks

He sings about losing his virginity to a widowed farmer with leathery hands.

Don't Stop Believing - Journey

It's about a one night stand.

"Baby, It's Cold Outside". I'm pretty sure it's about date rape.

Stranglehold has some lyrics that can be taken a certain way, not that I care. Awesome tune all the way around.

Mmmm Bop is about slowly eating someone's liver with a spoon while they are still alive.

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration slips away
Because you're baby is so far away

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with

Don't be angry - don't be sad
Don't sit crying over good times you've had
There's a girl right next to you
And she's just waiting for something to do

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with

Turn your heartache right into joy
'Cause she's a girl and you're a boy
Get it together come on make it nice
You ain't gonna need anymore advice

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with

I've lost count of the number of times I've seen some hard core Christian sing along to George Harrison's 'My Sweet Lord', never realizing what it is they're really singing.

That's not to say the song itself is 'dicey', just not about Jesus.

Monkey Man by The Stones. Not explicit in the lyrics, but patent from hearing them.

Everybody on TD beats off, so it´s not a big deal, but surely was at the time.

Benny Mardones - Into the Night

She's just sixteen years old
Leave her alone, they say
Separated by fools
Who don't know what love is yet
But I want you to know

[Chorus:]
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Like you've never seen - ever seen.

It's like having a dream
Where nobody has a heart
It's like having it all
And watching it fall apart
And I would wait till the end of time for you
And do it again, it's true
I can't measure my love
There's nothing to compare it to
But I want you to know
