And he would have been a student of Mozarts, too, if he hadn't kicked the bucket...

Talking about risque: I still wonder what went through Bach's mind when he wrote this:
The lyrics almost entirely consist of the woman asking the guy: when do you come. My piece. And he's like I come! I come! I come! Your piece.
I have no idea what piece they are talking about, either.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
