I've used the work Chlorophenicol(sp?) and Ciprofloxacin (sp?) in a song, but it was for a project in my Microbiology class in high school, those are anti-biotics by the way.
But other "inarticulate" words by Queen I can't think of right now.
Most of 'The Faerie Fellers Masterstroke' I guess. After all, how often are you going to be able to use 'tatterdemalion and a junketer'.
Oh, and 'shimmy shammy leather'!
Stickells, Elektra, EMI, Wayne, Jaws, Superman all in Bicycle Race.
All of Mustapha
Conqueror, Eastwood in Drowse
Cling in Teo Torriatte
But never apodictically.....yet.

Aaaahhhhhhhh!!!! It's a tongue in cheek line! It's not literal! He's not saying that cheese is sweet! Only a deaf person couldn't hear that Freddie's singing it as a lark (as it's sung by Brian's sweet lady whose eyes are rolled up so far in her head at Brian's lame lines that she can't see him.) You and the other buffoons who don't like the line are entitled to do so. However, I must remind you that if you take things so literally (as it's the 'sweetness' of the cheese that pisses people off), I must remind you that Freddie did not kill a man in Bo Rhap, Roger's academic credentails sugggest he did not learn more in the pool hall than he did in the school hall, and John's lover in Misfire does not have a loaded gun pointed his way. It's hardly Brian's greatest poetry, but it gets slagged more than any other line he's written because people don't understand it's TONGUE IN CHEEK!
Theres loads. Perceptable in Dreamer's Ball, pretty much every phrase in I'm Going Slightly Mad like "One card short of a full deck" or "I think I'm a banana tree". You can think of one for almost all the songs.

I bet they never use the words in Mustapha again ;)

Misfire is a classic.
'Your gun is loaded and pointed my way. There's only one bullet so don't delay...'
LMAO...
Talk about tongue in cheek (or is it gun in pocket :))
FRIED CHICKEN!
Also "perceptable" in Dreamer's Ball, "Operation" in No-One But You, "Shilling" in Slightly Mad", and "Dictated" in Innuendo, "Chippendale" in Delilah, "Emerald" in Spread Your Wings, all the stuff like Babylon and Taj Mahal in The Miracle, and whatever is said at the end of Headlong.
See, there's one for almost every song.
I know that John wrote Misfire, was referring to Brian's line in Sweet Lady as perhaps not his finest poetry, and used the line in Misfire as a figurative example a la "sweet" cheese.
