"Don't take offence at my innuendo..."

What's the innuendo we're not to take offence at?

Shit posts on Queen fan message boards.

I think Freddie's life was full of innuendo. E.g. when he jumped into a trash can and started yelling "I'm trash, I'm trash!". What did he mean? What would Freud think? How many lines of Bolivian marching powder were involved?

That all we are and all we do is insignificant in the grand scheme of things.

I don't know about the "offense" but the innuendo is all going back to the suggestion about the brief - chaotic nature of life - and it's impending .... ending.

I think the cover art starts it. with the banana thrown in.

but much of the album hints at his impending death; the nature of life, times passage ..whether written by Freddie, Brian or Roger.

explicitly: The Show Must Go On, I'm Going Slightly Mad, All Gods People, "if there's any to the questions" part of innuendo. etc

yeah^^ I knew I got it wrong. I woke up pretty trashed from a night of karaoke. *(hadn't done it in nearly two months) I looked at my posting and said "eh nobody will really mind"

Good summation. Very well put.

There is also some similarity of the lyrics to parts of the 81st Surah of the Koran. Could have been a distant inspiration.

mooghead doesn't know what the word innuendo means.

Perhaps he was referring to his "totally bonkers" message about 'signing off' to the fun club
