Sister Sledge can only mean one thing:

She neutralizes it, IIRC.  I'll confirm after the set.

actually I can think of somehting else it might mean, especially after "Damned If I Do",...could be Bob's subtle commentary on the Tom Cruise engagement news.

Cruise is one seriously disturbed 'toon. Er, guy.

I used to take gay rumors with a large grain of salt, but he's so transparent at this point. And it isn't even about him so much as about Scientology (which among its many claims is that it can "cure" homosex). THAT'S why he sues people for hinting he might be less than 100% straight -- it's about his "church". He hopes to take over the "church" someday; it's about power and having (literally) more money than God.

No, it is indeed "spooky little boy."  I stand corrected.  Er, sit.  Weirdly, though, she changes the verses so that they're about her ("my eye will be a winkin'," etc.) and yet he's the "spooky" one.  She also exchanges the Hallowe'en proposal with the throwaway line, "but now I see / you're not what you seem."

Ha! she thinks he's "spooky" 'cause he's not responding to all her winkin' blinkin' and noddin'... maybe she's winking at Tom Cruise...

(Now THAT would be spooky.)
