phallic, eh?

i watched mr. bean's holiday a few weeks ago and was reminded why bean was one of my favorite shows when i was little. if you did not like the first mr. bean movie, like myself, check this one out. i went to see this one expecting another awful movie like the first, but left the theater satisfied and still laughing at the scene where he got stuck inside a wooden hut.

and then, a few days ago, chang sent me johnny english. i remember watching this movie and was not too impressed by it, but re-watching it made it so much better, especially after i had forgotten most of what's going on in that movie, even the fact that natalie imbruglia was in it and that she was awfully beautiful.

one thing i've been paying close attention to lately, is movie soundtrack. johnny english surprisingly had a pretty good soundtrack, but among the seven songs that i like from the soundtrack album, the two that are worth mentioning are the following:

1. robbie williams - man for all seasons
(download)
(lyrics)

2. abba - does your mother know
(download)
(lyrics)

read the lyrics, you might find them as amusing as i did.

robbie williams included two sexual innuendo in the lyrics: one was very obvious, "Send the villains to Hades, a hit with the ladies, // a stallion, in the sack." but the other was one subtle enough that i didn't notice until i paid careful attention, "So charismatic, with an automatic, // never prematurely shooting his load."

and then imagine rowan atkinson having the attributes described above. the thought gave me a splitting headache.

abba's song isn't a lot less disturbing. check out the lyrics and tell me if you also think it's talking about a horny underaged girl flirting with older men. i was at panera eating my french onion soup with this song playing in my ipod when the verse "I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild" came around and made me smirk a little. then the next line came around "Ah, but girl you're only a child" and i almost spat out my soup at an old couple sitting across from me.

i don't know if i should be amused or disturbed.
