Songs About Stripping (Not Literally…)

Despite the lurid-sounding title, this post consists primarily of songs with the word "Strip" (in its various forms) in their titles. The "stripping" in question, then, is more or less metaphorical and doesn't actually involve any disrobing. Enjoy?  ~  JH

Songs About Your Mama

"Yo' Mama" jokes used to be all the rage way back when, though they tend to fall a little flat these days. However – as this collection of songs will attest – "Your Mama" songs never go out of style. As you will see here, your mama does not excel at dancing, won't like your boyfriend/girlfriend, is capable of being both shocked and rocked, and is in serious danger of being murdered by Frank Zappa's guitar. Sophisticated stuff here. Enjoy?  ~  JH
