[edit] Song meaing

"Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too" itself is an account of the writer's (most likely Max Bemis) experience when he calls a relatively anonymous young girl on the phone after the two meet on the internet. She then proceeds to pleasure herself accordingly.

[edit] Music video

The music video predominantly, and somewhat obviously, features a motif of telephones throughout. The first shot is of a butler rolling out an old-fashioned telephone on a tray for Max Bemis to pick up and dial a number on. Also, there are shots of a large ice sculpture of a telephone, which Max proceeds to lick.

The music video is also a somewhat satirical look at the growing trends and fashions brought on by such corporations as MTV. For example, the beginning shows a group of beautiful Indian women dancing with their cell phones in hand. Max stands in front of a Prius - the antithesis of flashy cars in rap videos. In another shot, Max dances in a white suit in front of a backdrop with pixels of changing lights and colors, which is a parody of the music video "Rock Your Body" by Justin Timberlake.

Also, Henry Winkler of Happy Days fame has a surprise guest appearance. Winkler has said that band member Max Bemis and his youngest son, Max Winkler, were friends in high school.
