Ha, well this doesn't nearly compare with JetBlack in the dirty category, but it's along the same lines - The Fez, by Steely Dan. The only lyrics are- "I'm never gonna do it without the fez on, Ah naw. That's what I am, please understand, I wanna be your holy man." Ha, use your imagination.
Haha, my mom hates that tune with a passion, so whenever it comes up on the radio or on my dad's iTunes, he turns it up loud enough to be heard throughout the house. >=D
One song I like is called "Rum is For Drinking, Not For Burning" by Senses Fail - I'm SURE it's a metaphor for something (throughout the song) but I have no idea what!
