"Close To Me"- 'The Cure'
"Sexy Eiffel Towers"- 'Bow Wow Wow' [}:)] [}:)][}:)]

Almost forgot about XTC's "Pink Thing". Yes, it's all very "double-entendre" and could easily refer to an actual infant, but methinks Andy Partridge was up to his usual cheekiness:

Yeah, I should've done my homework regarding the Billy Squier song. I just took the info straight from another website without verifying the lyrics.
