Who’s that eating that nasty food? Nasty boys!
[Nasty; Janet Jackson (1986)]
Ms. Jackson clearly has the number of the nasty boys. She knows who has been eating the nasty food. She exclaims it, loudly. It is not that the food is nasty. It is that it has been consumed. Consumed by the nasty boys.
[...] Control became an out-of-the-box hit, and eventually spun off six singles, the first five of which – “What Have You Done for Me Lately,” the catch phrase-inspiring “Nasty,” the number one “When I Think of You,” the title track, and the ballad “Let’s Wait Awhile” – hit the Top Five on the pop charts.
