* Little Big Town's "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0O0nzkESTI Pontoon]]" contains all kinds of sexual double entendres. They include "Reach your hand down into the cooler" and the lead singer smirks at the camera when singing that line. Other double entendres include "Can't beat the heat so let's take a ride" and "Mm, motorboatin'".

* The entirety of Semisonic's "Get A Grip" is about using the title as a masturbation reference. If that's not blatant enough for you, the video is an order of magnitude worse, mostly boiling down to people doing exercise in a way that looks like masturbation, giving/receiving blowjobs, et cetera.

Added DiffLines:

* "Squeeze Box" with TheWho. [[WordOfGod Pete Townsend]] says its just a song about a woman playing an accordion, deliberately written to invoke this effect.
* The BowlingForSoup song "My Wena" is one long innuendo. They even make it obvious in the original version of the video with a woman in a penis costume. In the end, it's revealed that the entire song is about a Dachshund named Wena.
* The Music/{{ACDC}} song "Big Balls" is one unbroken double entendre -- as evidenced by the song's name.
** Let's face it: Everything those guys have recorded since their first album has been some flavor of thinly veiled, squick-ily obvious sexual reference,
** The album notes for Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap refers to Big Balls as "Not subtle enough to be a double entendre. It's more like a single entendre."
*** That said, performing most of the song in a hoity-toity accent adds to the fake subtlety, making the song even more hilarious for those who get it.
* By Big & Rich, the entire song of "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)". You read that right- the song is actually named Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy).
** The lyrics (and these are ACTUAL lyrics) "I'm a thoroughbred, that's what she said".
* Bull Moose Jackson's "Big Ten Inch Record" (famously covered by Music/{{Aerosmith}}) uses verse breaks to create double entendres:
-->''But I really get her going\\
When I whip out my big 10 inch\\
[[{{Beat}} ...]]\\
record of a band that plays the blues...''
* Music/{{Aerosmith}}'s song "Love in an Elevator".
-->''Goooooooing Doooooown!''
** Look closely at the name of the album "Night in the Ruts".
* Mike Mareen's "Don't Talk to the Snake". You probably [[FreudWasRight know what "snake" means]], and the lyrics may be interpreted as a warning against AIDS. This was in 1988, when the epidemic started to go public.
* "Things I'll Never Say" by Avril Lavigne kinda plays on this too:
-->''If I could say what I want to say\\
I'd say I want to blow you--away\\
and...\\
If I could say what I want to see\\
I want to see you go down--on one knee''
* The {{Queen}} song "Don't Stop Me Now" is just one big Double Entendre from start to finish.
-->''I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky\\
Like a tiger, defying the laws of gravity\\
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva\\
I'm gonna go, go, go, there's no stopping me!''
** ... [[MindScrew Maybe]]...
*** "Maybe"?
-->''Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time''...\\
''I'm gonna make a supersonic man out of you''
** and more obvious
-->''I'm a sex machine ready to reload like an atom bomb, I'm 'bout to oh oh oh oh EXPLODE''
* Similar to the Dewey Cox example, Bob and Tom have a song that goes "blow me... a kiss as you're leaving".
** Similar to ''this'' example, "The Sharpest Lives" by MyChemicalRomance...
-->''So why don't you blow me...\\
A kiss before she goes''
* "Wanna B Ur Lovr" by Weird Al is made entirely of these, with a few just out there compliments thrown in. (Yugoslavian hands?)
* Just look at the lyrics to [[http://www.sweetslyrics.com/571027.Nick%20Cave%20-%20Today%27s%20Lesson%20.html "Today's Lesson" by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds]].
* Songwriter Cole Porter was a master of the DoubleEntendre (as alluded to in one example above). His songs "Love For Sale" and "But In The Morning, No" were once banned from radio because of their heavy use of DoubleEntendre.
* Rihanna's "Shut Up and Drive."

-->''And you probably already think I am full of\\
Vague innuendos and double-meanin' rhymes.\\
But I'll tell you that obscenity is all in your\\
[[http://dmdb.org/lyrics/polka.dot.undies.html Polka-dot undies!]]''
* It might be intentional in the Isley Brother's song "Between the Sheet" besides the "I like the way you receive me" and "I love the way you relieve me" lines which you can only take that one way, several times he says
-->''I'm coming... coming on strong\\
In between the sheets''
* Those of us with more esoteric taste in music will know that many, many '20s and '30s blues songs contain double entendres, such as Blind Boy Fuller's "Let Me Squeeze Your Lemon", The Memphis Jug Band's "Memphis Yo Yo Blues", Blind Lemon Jefferson's "Black Snake Moan", and my personal favorite, Bessie Smith's "I Need a Little Sugar In My Bowl".
* Judy Henske sings a song about a man who is a 'deep sea diver whose stroke can't go wrong.' Not only that, but 'he can touch the bottom, and his wind holds out so long'
* JimmyBuffett has admitted that he specifically wrote his song "Why Don't We Get Drunk And Screw", which is about, well, getting drunk and screwing, because he was sick and tired of hearing double entendres in other people's songs.
* [[ThisIsSpinalTap Spinal Tap]]'s "Big Bottom".
-->''Big bottom, big bottom\\
Talk about a bum case, my girl's got 'em\\
Big bottom, drives me out of my mind\\
How can I leave this behind?''
* Tim Cavanagh's novelty country ballad, "I Wanna Kiss Her".
-->''I wanna kiss her but... she won't let me\\
I wanna whisper sweet nothings in herrrrr... ear\\
I wanna hold her behind... closed doors and more''
* "'''F'''oxtrot '''U'''niform '''C'''harlie '''K'''ilo" by the Bloodhound Gang is made up of double entendres, and ends with the line "put the you know what in the you know where". The video for the song is also ripe with VisualInnuendo. One of the images shown is Bam Margera driving a giant banana-shaped car into a tunnel. Nearly all of their songs contain double entendres, seeing as nearly all of them are about sex. Other prominent examples are "Fire Water Burn" and "Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss".
* The song and music video "Gay Bar" by Electric Six is rife with both this and VisualInnuendo.
** Half their songs are either blatantly about sex ("I wanna make it last forever" said twelve times, getting higher and higher, before ending with "Ooh baby"), or more subtle innuendo. ''Broken Machine'' includes the lyrics:
-->It doesn't do anything, it just sits there, and looks at me.
** "Bite Me" deserves special notice, as the verses are almost completely dedicated to euphemisms for fellatio...[[{{Squick}} which makes the title a bit disturbing in hindsight]].
* A certain song by Lords of Acid leaves it entirely up to the listener to decide whether they're singing about a cat or the female anatomy.
* Jason Mraz's "Geek in the Pink" has more than a few, the most prominent being:
-->''I can save you from\\
Unoriginal dum-dums\\
Who wouldn't care if you come... plete them or not!''
* Would you believe, Justin Timberlake's already explicit "Dick in a Box"? Aaaaaand... THERE. You just got it.
** Does it count for a double entendre if the title [[DontExplainTheJoke explains the joke?]]
* Alice Cooper, among other songs, had ''I'm Your Gun''. Even though you probably know what's coming, a brief example:
-->''You be the target on the bed\\
I'll be shootin' hot lead''
* Richard & Linda Thompson's song "Hokey Pokey" is ostensibly about ice cream, but features enough references to 'putting it your mouth' to make its meaning clear.
* Melanie's "Brand New Key".
* '40s novelty singer Benny Bell, in addition to his famous [[SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion subverted-rhyme]] hit "Shaving Cream", composed ditties with such piquant titles as "My Grandpa Had a Long One", "Everybody Wants My Fanny", and "I'm Gonna Give My Girl a Goose for Thanksgiving".
* TheBeatles had several: "Please Please Me", "Drive My Car", "Norwegian Wood", "Happiness Is a Warm Gun".
** The original title was "Happiness is a Warm Gun in your Hand".
* "My Ding-A-Ling" by Chuck Berry.
* 2pac's "Me & My Girlfriend".
* Poe's "Angry Johnny". Could be about homicide. Could be about something else:
-->''I can do it on water, I can do it on dry land\\
I can do it with instruments, I can do it with my own two hands\\
But either way, either way you'll know where it stands\\
I'm gonna kill you, I'm gonna blow you... away''
* The last line of Tenacious D's "Wonderboy" goes "There, that crevasse; fill it with your mighty juice." Hmm, wonder what that might be...
* ''Music/{{Knorkator}}s'' "Song of the horse" might be a completely innocent song about the deep friendship between the vocalist and his horse. But since there is no actual reference to a horse in the lyrics, it might also be entirely about sex.
* 50s song "Laundromat Blues" by 5 Royales:
-->''Throw in all your dirty clothes, all your dirty duds\\
Don't worry about no soap, her machine is full of suds\\
She's got the best machine\\
The best washing machine in town (ooh-wee what a machine!)\\
Just relax and take it easy\\
As the machine goes round and round''
* LadyGaga has several, but probably the most obvious one is ''LoveGame'':
-->''Let's have some fun, this beat is sick\\
I wanna take a ride on your disco stick''
* Britney Spears has a song called If You Seek Amy, which, if annunciated, gives a very interesting suggestion
** Long before that song was ever out, April Wine had "If You See Kay"
* "Ego" by Kanye West and Beyonce. Three guesses what his ego is.
-->''I got a big ego, (hahaha)\\
I?m such a big ego, (hahaha)\\
I got a big, (hahaha), Ego,\\
She love my big, (hahaha), Ego,\\
So stroke my big, (hahaha), Ego''
** Knowing Kanye, he could very well just be talking about his actual ego.
* XTC's "Pink Thing". According to its writer, Andy Partridge, it was written to express his love and pride for his newborn son. But the lyrics could just as easily be interpreted as a man's ode to his penis.
* Paul and Storm's "The Captain's Wife's Lament", about the complaints of a sea captain's wife after he lets his entire crew stay in their home.
-->''She said there's\\
Seamen all around the bed\\
And seamen on the floor\\
Seamen in the bathroom\\
And behind the closet door''
* Steven Curtis Chapman's song "Remembering You", written about {{Narnia}} but could also be about Jesus.
** As could Narnia itself, natch.
* TheKinks' "Lola". Is the title character an unusually mannish woman, or a male transvestite?
-->''Well I'm not the world's most masculine man\\
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man\\
And so is Lola''
* "Walt Whitman's Niece", written by Woody Guthrie and recorded by Billy Bragg with Wilco, has several of these in its lyrics.
* The song "If I Can't Sell It" by Ruth Brown is chock full of them. Ostensibly about a furniture store owner lambasting a cheap customer for refusing to pay the marked price for a chair, the song is full of goodies like this:
-->''How'd you like to find this waiting at home for you every night?\\
Only been used once or twice, but it's still nice and tight!''
* The funk group Here Come The Mummies have an album entitles 'Single Entendre', referencing their frequently overtly sexual lyrics.
* After Dark, a swedish band has the song "Åh när ni"("Oh, when you"), and just to get you a tip of what kind of what type of double entendres we're in for, the song title is very similar in pronunciation to onani (masturbation). The entire song consists of famous tv-show host doing stuff they do in their shows... but with a clear second meaning. Examples include a female chef poking about on the button on her hot air oven, and a car show host "oiling his lever". [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo6sv9KODR8 Here it is.]]
* Les Sucettes, written by Serge Gainsbourg for France Gall, like many of Gainsbourg's songs, is full of this. It's special however, as the singer, who was 17(!) at the time, took a year to have a Swiss Moment to associate lollipops with oral sex. She was pissed.
* In a rare, non-sexual version, the cover for {{Rush}}'s ''Moving Pictures'' is a ''triple'' entendre. There are people moving pictures, people finding the pictures moving emotionally, and somebody making a moving picture of the scene.
* Music/CheerUpCharlieDaniels does this ''a lot''.
* Rodney Carrington's song "Fred" features a cowboy, his horse, and his lady love, all named Fred. The chorus is "Fred's a-ridin', Fred's a-ridin' Fred, Fred's ridin' Fred, Fred's ridin' Fred. Fred's ridin' Fred" and admits of any interpretation from the completely innocent to the unspeakably kinky.
* "The Stroke" by Billy Squier - thought to be about [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbation]].
** An alternate interpretation suggests it's an indictment of the music industry.
* Kip Adotta's "Wet Dream" is a double entendre by title alone and is full of undersea puns and double entendres:
-->"I pulled into a Shell station...they said I'd blown a seal. I said, 'Fix the damn thing and leave my private life out of it, okay, pal?'"
* "Nobody Makes A Pass At Me":
-->Nobody comes knocking at my front door.\\
What do they think my knocker's for?
* The Hungarian rapper ''Sub Bass Monster'''s song ''4 ütem'' (4 phases) has lyrics that are equally suitable at describing the workings of an internal combustion engine and being a [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness needlessly over-complicated description]] of smoking, to hilarious effect.
* Music/KatyPerry's "Peacock" song, although it barely hides the meaning. Hint: if you don't get it right away, split the word into two words. Now what?......and, no, it's not about an [[CompletelyMissingThePoint exotic bird.]]
** "California Gurls" also has a phallic entendre: "Sun-kissed skin, so hot, we'll melt your popsicle".
* Lots of traditional British [[FolkMusic folk songs]]. The "Bonny Black Hare" starts off with the singer aiming his "gun" at a "black hare" that's hidden under a woman's skirt. During the second verse, it abandons this metaphor and is just them having sex. "The Cuckoo's Nest" (recorded by Steeleye Span as "Drink Down The Moon") is just as bad ("I'll give any lass a shilling and a bottle of the best/Just to rumple up the feathers of her cuckoo's nest"). For more of this sort of thing, see BawdySong.
* BillyJoel's song "Christie Lee" is about a saxophone player who meets a woman at his gig, who is impressed by his skill and comes home with him so he can "perform" for her. In case it wasn't clear, we get this lyric: "He couldn't see that Christie Lee was a woman/who didn't need another lover; all she wanted was the [[IncrediblyLamepun sax]]!"
* Music/{{ACDC}}'s "The Jack", (at least in it's original album form) is ostensibly about a poker game, but with lines like 'How was I to know that she'd been shuffled before... said she'd never had a royal flush' and 'She was holding a pair, but I had to try...' and 'She'd have the cards to bring me down, if she played them right' its clearly about [[GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex something else]].
** It's not about ''[[GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex that]]'', it's about ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexually_transmitted_disease this]]''.
* {{Queen}}'s "I'm In Love With My Car" is either a sex euphemism (this is Queen after all) or it's a CarSong that even [[TopGear Richard 'Oliver!' Hammond]] would find a bit worrying: 'Such a clean machine, With the pistons a pumpin' And the hub caps all gleam'.
** Get this: it was originally meant to be played straight. The song was written by Roger Taylor in honour of a roadie whose Triumph TR-4 was the centre of his life. Whether it's also a poke at guys who let their hobbies take over their lives is another question entirely, but given that the song was written by Roger Taylor it's probably not a terribly deep euphemism. The best part about the song is that Taylor ''locked himself into a cupboard'' until the rest of the band agreed to make the song the B-side to the "Bohemian Rhapsody" single. He did that because although singles were sold based on the A-side content, the writers of the A-side song and the B-side song shared the royalties earned on the single.

* Similar to "Christie Lee" is "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodhrán Bodhráns]] on the Brain" by Black 47.
::"I told her to skin a goat/And take it back to my place ... we hammered away relentlessly until the dawn" indeed.
* The Music/BryanAdams song "Summer of 69" is ''not'' about the year 1969.
* One of the infamous deal-breakers that caused {{Heart}} to leave their first label, Mushroom Records, was an [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity deliberately controversial ad]] for ''Dreamboat Annie'' they published without consulting the Wilson sisters, with double entendres insinuating they were [[IncestSubtext lesbian sister lovers]]. The headline read "It Was Our First Time". This embarrassment, and the heckling they endured not long after by chauvinistic male executives at a label showcase, were the inspiration being one of their toughest rockers, "Barracuda" (referring to the "barracuda" tour jackets the hecklers wore).
* Every single one of ''Blood On The Dance Floor'''s songs have these kinds of jokes. Every goddamn one of them. No exceptions. And none of them are at all subtle.
* ''Are You Experienced'' from TheJimiHendrixExperience is one where two meanings are sexual; "experienced" could be either a adjective or a verb.
* Brian Hyland's ''Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini'' sounds like it's about a bashful teenage girl in said outfit. It was actually about Brian's 2-year-old (at the time) daughter.
* "[[http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/craig_campbell/fish.html Fish]]" by Craig Campbell has a bunch, including "I had everything we needed in the bed of my truck / Turns out my baby loves to... / [[SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion Fish, she wants to do it all the time]]", "And I love how she looks with that rod in her hand", "With her hooks and her sinkers and her pretty pink bobbers", etc.
* Music/{{Warrant}}'s "[[IntercourseWithYou Cherry Pie]]" has several of these:
-->Swingin' in there 'cause\\
She wanted me to feed her\\
So I mixed up the batter\\
And she licked the beater!
