There was a tune out in the late fall of 1978 by a disco group called
Musique.  The title was "In the Bush".  The lyrics were

Push, push in the bush
You know I want to get down.

After receiving immediate airplay on most pop and disco NY stations, In
the Bush was pulled from their playlists, on the grounds that it was
"highly suggestive and offensive".
