Ok, so it’s our resident Ninja’s birthday, (and by Ninja, I mean our art department top-secret-secret-weapon) and he loves Journey, so we’re rocking out to Journey in the art department, high on chocolate cake, singing along to Journey, which is in someone’s computer, placed there by some long-gone former employee. Well, the next song that came up was the classic, “I can’t go for that” by Hall and Oats, of course. I grew up listening to the Hall and the Oats. And I never put it together until I worked in a Dildo Factory: He’s talking about ANAL SEX.
“No!” you say, “You work in a Dildo Factory, so you think everthing is about sex!” (isn’t it?!)
Well, let’s settle this. Here are the lyrics to the timeless song about lust and drawing a boundary:
I Can’t Go For That
by Hall and Oats
Easy, ready, willing, overtime,
Where does it stop,
where do you dare me
to draw the line.
You’ve got the body,
now you want my soul,
Don’t even think about it,
say no go.
I– I ‘ll do anything
that you want me to do,
And I’ll do almost anything,
that you want me too, ooh,
But I can’t go for that, (No can do) Anal Sex!!
No, I can’t go for that, (No can do) Anal Sex!!
Oh, I can’t go for that, (No can do) Anal Sex!!
I can’t go for that, And he goes on and on about it, obviously he’s afraid that it will make him gay!
can’t go for that,
can’t go for that.
I can go for being twice as nice, threesome
I can go for just repeating
the same old lines.
Use the body,
now you want my soul, another word for anal sex is being “owned.” hello! this is so obvious!
Ooh, forget about it,
now say no go.
I– I’ll do anything
that you want me to do,
And I’ll do almost anything
that you want me to do,
But I can’t go for that, (No can do)
No, I can’t go for that, (No can do)
Oh, I can’t go for that, (No can do)
I can’t go for that,
can’t go for that,
can’t go for that. Thou dost protest too much!! He wants it, but he’s scared.
Oh, I– I’ll do anything He has to be eased into it, teased into it…
that you want me to do,
And I’ll do almost anything
that you want me to do,
But I can’t go for that, (No can do)
No, I can’t go for that, (No can do)
Oh, I can’t go for that, (No can do)
I can’t go for that,
can’t go for that,
can’t go for that,
can’t go for that.
can’t go for that (No can do)
I can’t go,
I can’t go–
for that, (No can do) Ok, I was giving him the benefit of the doubt, but now
Oh, I can’t go for that, (No can do) he’s just digging himself into a hole.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no can do,
Oh, I can’t go for that, yeah, (No can do)
No, no, no, no, no, no…..
I rest my case.
And if you have any doubt at all, look at this picture:
By the way, I’m not judging, I’d want to have anal sex with either of these men if I was a guy… But apparently they are “No Can Do” regarding the back door disco.
What’s up with only Oats having his shirt off…?
Wow, they look like hot girls here, except for the mousache.

I was RIGHT!! I thought “Damn! This sounds like doing everything but anal sex” the very first time I heard it back in 1982, and every time since.

[...] it’s the hot percussion-and-synth that introduces “Say It Isn’t So;” the veiled reference to anal sex in “I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do);” or the delicious harmonies in the [...]
