Bruno Mars's "The Lazy Song" tells how he would spend a day doing "nothing at all".

Two lines go ...

"Meet a really nice girl
Have some really nice sex"

So, if you happened to meet a "really nice girl" ... you'd have her in bed before the end of the day?????

You think????????

Richard Keys and Andy Grey were hounded by the media for jokingly suggesting that women didn't understand the offside rule.

Bruno Mars releases a song portraying women as some sort of sex toy, good for a shag when he is bored ...

... and he's a pop hero.

Surely he has to be banned from the radio?

Can't see the comparison myself.

It makes me cringe when he sings that bit in front of my 7yr old and my 8 & 10yr old nieces. Some stations do blur it out but I personally dont think it's necessary to sing that on a song.

There is no comparison, ummmm.

Bruno's song is WAY more offensive.

The suggestion that we might not understand some dopey football rule is just laughable.

The suggestion that if you meet us, you can shag us, is simply offensive.

eh? I'd like to meet a really nice bloke and have some really nice sex too :)

I agree it shoud be banned.... But only because I really, really don't like his singing voice.

Is it? We can meet men and shag them....works both ways.

I expect she was a willing participant, and thought she'd used him as a sex toy, good for a shag, when she got bored trying to understand the offside rule.

I do accept that the song would not scan so well if the lines were ...

"Meet a really nice girl,
Ask her on a date, maybe see her again, get to know each other, see a bit more of each other, if we get on well enough then perhaps enjoy a physical relationship"

So I guess, for now, we're stuck with a song which says ...

If I'm bored, I'm going to go out and find a woman, and give her one.

Remember that Bruno Mars's majority audience is teenage girls.
