Platt,
Do you condemn film and novels because there are pornographic films and
novels?

If you can you find such blatantly sexual lyrics as this ever sung by
Frank Sinatra or Peggy Lee, let me know:
"How u like it, daddy (the way she do it from the front)?
How u like it, daddy (the way she do it from the back)?
How u like it, daddy (then bring it down like that)?
"And she know why she came here
And she know where clothes suppose to be (off and over there)
[Bleeped 'Sniff a lil' coke, take a lil' X, smoke a lil' weed,'] drink a
lil' bit
I need a girl I could freak with
And wanna try [bleeped 's--t'] and ain't scared of a big [bleeped 'd--k']
And love to get her [bleeped 'p---y'] licked by another [bleeped 'b---h']
Cause I ain't drunk enough to do that [bleeped 's--t']"
Pete Pablo - "Freak-a-Leak" video, shown on MTV to 10 year olds and up.
Looks to me like Bloom's analysis of rock is right on,. and Pirsig came up
with the perfect word to describe it -- degenerate.
