Decades before #metoo, “Swimsuit Issue” was

…inspired by the odious ejaculative habits of a then-current [Geffen] employee who was subsequently remanded to therapy,

according to the ‘Dirty’ deluxe reissue liner notes by Byron Coley.

Swimsuit Issue Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm just here for dictation
I don't wanna be a sensation
Being on 60 Minutes
Wasn't worth your fifteen minutes

[Verse 2]
Don't touch my breast
I'm just working at my desk
Don't put me to the test
I'm just doing my best

[Verse 3]
Shopping at Maxfields
Power for you to wield
Dreams of going to the Grammys
'Til you poked me with your whammy

[Verse 4]
You spin the discs
Now you're moving your wrist
I'm just from Encino
Why are you so meano?

[Verse 5]
I'm just here for dictation
I'm not your summer vacation
You really like to schmooze
Well, now you're on the news

[Verse 6]
I'm from Sherman Oaks
Just a wheel in the spokes
But I ain't giving you head
In a Sunset bungalow

[Outro]

I'm swimming
I'm swimming
I'm swimming
