Start Me Up by the Rolling Stones

There are a few Stones songs I really love, and their musical influence is enduring. Start Me up doesn't make the cut. Exhibit A: car-as-cock analogies. Exhibit B: Jagger in a leotard. Exhibit C: "You make a dead man come." One of the most revolting lyrics in rock history.

For a good time, give a listen to the Folksmen parody.
