Little Red Corvette as metaphor for what?

[YunoYurbubson]

Years and years and YEARS ago I was driving a car full of people while listening to the radio. The dj played The Stranglers Golden Brown and said something like "and if you think that's a song about Autumn you probably also think that Prince's 'Little Red Corvette' is about a small red car! Ha ha ha ha ha". And all his minions went "ha ha ha ha ha" and everyone in the car went "ha ha ha ha ha" and I went "ha ha eh?"

It has been bugging me for years. What is Little Red Corvette supposed to be about?

And, since we are on the subject, should my 4yo be bellowing 'sisters are doing it for themselves' at the top of her lungs? "standing on their own two feet, and ringing on their own bells!"

I don't know, is it a penis?

I'd say it's about one night stands/promiscuity.

Isn't it about a girl who has lots of sex?

It's about sex and her gorgeous body.

Girl, you got an ass like I never seen
And the ride...
I say the ride is so smooth
You must be a limousine

If you want unambiguous Prine lyrics give Darling Nikki a try!

Roffle. For some reason I imagine you asking that in the manner of a Family Fortunes contestant.

That was to SSM

You're saying "penis". If it's up there I'll give you the money myself. Let's have a look. We're looking for... PENIS?

WAH WAHHHHHH.

Ooooh, penis wasn't up there. I'm handing it over...

It's about a man having sex with a woman who's had sex with a lot of other partners. He's a bit put off by that but then thinks "what the heck?"

Well now I know. Thanks all!
