15 Pop Songs With Shockingly Dirty Meanings

In today's modern pop culture world, there a lot of songs that lack substance. They have lame lyrics and computerized beats that equal a bunch of meaningless one-hit wonders. While you might have already dubbed a few of these songs as super awful, there could be some dirty undertones that you definitely missed. If you thought anything was sacred anymore, think again, as these artists take it to a new level of erotic. It totally changes the meaning of the song, and while some might be more obvious than others, there's always going to be a raunchy double entendre you majorly overlooked. It might even be one of your favorite songs, and you'll probably have to give it another listen when you realize what the artist is actually saying. Your eyes might even go as round as Nicki Minaj's buns when you discover how racy the verses truly are. Be prepared to be stunned. Here are 15 pop songs with shockingly dirty meanings.

15 "Drunk In Love" By Beyonce

This sultry song has a beat to get you in the mood, but do you know how dirty the lyrics actually get? Probably not, because if you think “why can't I keep my fingers off you” is the worst, then you're totally wrong. It gets a lot deeper than mere suggestive lyrics, it gets down and dirty in a way you probably didn't realize unless you looked up exactly what the Queen is saying. This song gives a little insight into Beyonce and Jay Z's love life with a few of his lines describing just how the two of them get down to business. While you can assume the song is hot, the lyrics are way hotter than you expected, and while everybody knows the chorus to this anthem, you might be surprised by how explicit it truly gets. We don't have to imagine what goes on in the sheets between this power couple anymore.

14 "S&M" By Rihanna

This pop song may be old but it brings back undeniable memories because literally, everybody listened to it. It's difficult not to equate early Rihanna with this song, but did you know how naughty the lyrics truly are? Sure, any song called "S&M" will be predictably dirty, but unless you knew it stood for sadism and masochism, you probably didn't know exactly how bad it is, even though you're perfectly good at it. Rihanna doesn't hold back, stating that “s*x in the air, I don't care I love the smell of it,” which is shockingly explicit as it is, but it goes on to say “stick and stones may break my bones but chains and whips excite me.” Knowing that the title of the song stands for a relationship that's fuelled by a mutual desire to inflict and receive pain as a means of pleasure, it takes the song to a dirtier level.

13 "Timber" By Pitbull

Sure, this is one catchy tune and the simplistic lyrics of the chorus make it impossible to get it out of your head, but do you know how totally dirty the other verses get? The implications are almost scandalous when you delve a bit deeper. Pitbull is quick to refer to a celebrity infamous for going nude, singing, “I have 'em like Miley Cyrus, clothes off twerking in their bras and thongs” which isn't awful until you begin to question how Pitbull could ever get a girl to take her clothes off. He goes on to get a little bit creepy, as it continues “face down, booty up, that's the way we like to what, I'm slicker than an oil spill, she say she won't but I bet she will.” No… no, you're not slicker than an oil spill, Pitbull, unless you've been greasing that hairless cranium. Also, to imply you should keep pressuring a girl after she says no? That's disgusting, and this song is surprisingly vulgar.

12 "Partition" By Beyonce

It might be a bit shocking how often Beyonce appears on this list, but if you're a true fan, you know how racy the Queen can be, especially when it comes to the more recent music that she's been releasing. If you were to choose a song that is filled with the most lustful visuals, it will probably be this one. Despite the erotic tones, she's polite enough to ask “Driver roll up the partition please” because “I don't need you seeing 'yonce on her knees.” Yup, the Queen is getting down and dirty. Not only that, but she talks about how wild her and this mysterious man she is talking about are about to get. If you weren't totally clear on the message in this song, you might be thinking that it's a lot naughtier than you expected. Just wait, because “he bucked all my buttons, he ripped my blouse, he Monica Lewinski'ed all on my gown.” Oh my god, that's an image you won't be able to get out of your head when you listen to this next.

11 "Whistle" By Flo Rida

You would totally be lying if you said you hadn't tried to whistle along to this song, especially when it was first released and literally everyone was listening to it. When he's saying he wants you to blow his whistle, though, what do you think he really means? Flo Rida isn't talking about a whistle, that's for sure. Not only that, but he's going to give you full instructions in case you didn't get the message the first time. In a too innocent voice, he says, “Girl I'm gonna show you how to do it, and we start real slow, you just put your lips together and you come real close,” and you know exactly what he's trying to suggest. Unless your mind is permanently on a dirty level, you might have missed the double entendres that are littered throughout every line of this hit. It might be a little weird knowing you listened to a song where Flo Rida was giving you instructions on how to go downtown.

10 "Work From Home" By Fifth Harmony

If you thought this song was about working from home, you're totally wrong. It might sound like a song about a woman that misses her husband while he's at work during the night shift, but that's definitely not the story. Fifth Harmony is stirring up the mood when they say, “I'm sending pic after picture, I'mma get you fired” because you know exactly what pictures they're sending and why it would get any man fired up. The typical and easy to listen to pop beat disguises the dirty meaning, as it swiftly becomes more suggestive. Fifth Harmony wants to “put it into motion, I'mma give you a promotion, I'll make it feel like a vacay, turn the bed into an ocean." You might be wondering why the bed might be getting that wet if the song is only about working. Oh, that kind of work, you mean. Yeah, you weren't expecting that.

9 "Blow" By Beyonce

This funky song definitely has some climatic parts, especially when Beyonce is getting all breathy, and there's a reason for it. You wouldn't pick up what she's implying if you were listening without commitment, so you might not realize what “I want you to tear that cherry out” means right off the bat. They don't mean the delicious fruit you might find at your local grocery store, that's for sure. Beyonce sings about her lover “never wasting a drip” and how much he likes it wet, and goes on to beg “can you eat my skittles, it's the sweetest in the middle, pink is the flavor,” and then she tells you to solve the riddle. Well, it's not that much of a riddle. This song is all about putting your face it doesn't normally belong, and that meaning is one you seriously overlooked. Yup, she's begging for you to “keep me humming, keep me moaning.”

8 "Love Game" By Lady Gaga

Yup, the raunchy meaning behind this song definitely blew your mind when you first realized it (or maybe you're freaking out now if you didn't realize it before). It wasn't one of Lady Gaga's biggest hits, so if you somehow managed to get through life without hearing the blatant demand to “have some fun, this beat is sick” then you're in for a wild ride. Sure, this is an awesome beat, but what's more important is that you know exactly what a disco stick is. Why is it so crucial to know what that is? It's because Lady Gaga wants to take a ride on it, and you better start considering what might look like a stick that you could have a party on. This song is filled with demands for heavy touching because Lady Gaga wants you to know that she's “educated in the deed,” which might be the best thing you've heard all day. What's the meaning of this song? Lady Gaga wants some time in the sheets, and the raunchiness might take you by surprise.

7 "Candy Shop" By 50 Cent

Uh-huh, so seductive. This groovy beat probably was your motivator on the dance floor once or twice back in the day, but oh my, it's a lot dirtier than you thought it was. Other than the ultra sexy lyrics telling that girl that 50 Cent will “take you to the candy shop, I'll let you lick the lollipop, go 'head girl don't you stop, keep going 'til you hit the spot,” it goes on to state that he'll melt in your mouth, and not in your hands. Of course, this is only after you work up a sweat because that's when you'll get to play with the stick. Not only that but after he wants you to climb on top and ride like you do in the rodeo. Any cowgirls approve of this? According to 50 Cent, he also goes on to share the way his girl like to get in the sheets. You always knew this song was raunchy, but this raunchy? It's a total stretch, and you'll have to go take a trip down memory lane and give it another listen.

6 "Gorilla" By Bruno Mars

His sugary sweet vocals mask the smutty and dirty meaning stitched in with the gorilla metaphor, but if you want to know what it's like to “make love like gorillas,” Bruno Mars will tell you what it's like. He paints the picture pretty, singing “you got your legs up in the sky, with the devil in your eyes” and goes on to reveal “I got a fistful of your hair, but you don't look like your scared,” and it's all because this dirty little lover of his says “Daddy, it's yours.” We can only imagine what's on Bruno's mind every time he's sung this song, and it's pretty explicit in a way you might not have expected. Pop songs are filled with these nasty meanings, but not many are defined purely by how startlingly risque they are. This could certainly be one of them because they're being so loud in the bedroom that the “neighbors called the cops.”

5 "Peacock" By Katy Perry

Katy didn't try to hide what she meant in this song, and it's almost funny that you now associate the vibrant bird with a man's bulge due to this pop singer. It's filled with Katy begging to see the magical and colorful “peacock” because she wants to see what you're hiding underneath. Her criteria is a dream, as she's wishing to find a man that is gifted with an extension that is “jaw droppin', eye poppin, head turnin', and body shockin'” which might be setting the bar pretty high. There's a dirty implication and meaning etched into every line, but it's also a fascinating story because near the end of the pop hit there's the big reveal, and “boy all this time was worth the waiting, you got the finest architecture, end of the rainbow looking treasure.” Ladies, have you ever met a man with architecture like Katy describes? If you need a checklist, using Peacock as one should suffice.

4 "Blurred Lines" By Robin Thicke

While most of the bawdy lyrics in dirty songs are harmless and sexy, there are a few with dangerous implications, and this one is defined by them. This song is supposedly about a girl that wants to have a wild and crazy night, but does not know how to say it… which basically turns the problem of men thinking no means yes into a song titled "Blurred Lines" which implies something a lot darker. If you pair it with the creepy music video, it ends up being a compilation of Robin Thicke whispering “I know you want it” in a naked girl's ear a dozen times, which doesn't exactly fit together with that magical and extremely important notion of consent. This is not just raunchy, it is creepy and inappropriate, and it has one of the dirtiest meanings you might find in a pop song. Consent is hot, Robin Thicke.

3 "I Wanna Go" By Britney Spears

With a history like Britney's, there are a lot of different situations in her life that you could equate the meaning of a song to, but this one might be a little sensual and solo. It's harmless until you start reading it with another topic in mind. Think about it, “time to blow out, be a little inappropriate, 'cause I know everybody's thinking it when the lights out,” and “shame on me to need release.” It's a little inappropriate, she needs release and shame is involved, and the lights are out? This might be about what you do when you're all alone and need to love yourself. Britney wants to “go all the way, taking out my freak tonight,” and she wants to show you “all the dirt I got running through my mind,” and now you're never going to be able to listen to this song the same way. It might be exactly the tune you need for the next time you want to have some fun yourself, or you might never want to listen to this again. You had no idea how dirty the meaning could be.

2 "Anaconda" By Nicki Minaj

Okay, so the infamous line “my anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun,” is explicit in itself, so there is no surprise there. However, what about the fast paced lines that Nicki busts out? You might have missed a dirty line in there, and while the meaning of this song is basically you need a behind to get a man, Nicki wants you to know she has other demands that are a little… shocking. How about when she says “he toss my salad like his name is Romaine”? If you do not know what tossing salad is, you probably do not want to unless you feel like being permanently scarred. Nicki reveals just exactly the type this man is packing saying that he is "bigger than a tower, I ain't talking about Eiffel's.” You knew Anaconda was dirty, but this dirty? There are some visuals that are shocking.

1 "Side to Side" By Arianna Grande

If you wanted to escape this song, you couldn't if you tried. It's catchy for sure, but you probably thought it was one of those pop songs with no substance or meaning. Think again because Ariana means something very specific with her bicycle metaphor and the phrase "side to side." That's right, she means you ladies will be walking side to side after you've “been there all night, been there all day”. Where? Well, between the sheets with your man, of course. This has seriously blown the mind of the entire internet, but if you dig a little deeper, there's more. It's Nicki that doesn't try to hide what's really being said, as she flings around phrases like “wrist icicle” and “ride d bicycle”, which truly reveals the lustful meaning. If you don't know what a wrist icicle is, well, be prepared for a treat when you look it up. Don't say we didn't warn you.
