Music

Good point. I always go back and forth with Oingo Boingo because their musicianship and composition is genius, but their lyrics can definitely cross the line from weird fun into creepy wtf. Only a Lad is basically a sociopath's anthem, but it fucking tears.

That being said, half the bands in the 80s have songs with some sort of variation on the jailbait theme, so they're hardly unique for the era. For me, until Elfman has charges brought against him, I'm gonna appreciate his work as an artistic statement rather than a predilection for pedophilia. Kinda like Nabokov with Lolita.

Nonetheless, Little Girls definitely isn't on my playlist.
