Hot Tamale Train

A metaphorical term used by the judges on the Fox reality TV show “So You Think You Can Dance” which suggests a dancer that performs at a high level and exhibits an element of “hot and sexiness” in their routine should be riding this imaginary vehicle.

Nigel: "I think you did very well. If you're not riding the Hot Tamale Train tonight, you're certainly on the platform."

Laid Train

A term used to describe how a male has vigorously pleasured a woman. Often used by the male’s friends to describe the sexual encounter performed on his “social female”. A metaphor using the word “train” to describe a male’s sex organ during the act of sexual intercourse. Not a passionate saying but an aggressive phrase depicting intense pelvic thrusting during sex. It is more acceptable for males to use as females would appear to be quite promiscuous.

Tall Bro: "To be perfectly honest with you bro, that girl isn't even that hot.... for real."

Short Bro: "What the F are you talking about bro? You ain't even laid train yet!!!"

Acceptable (Male)
William: Hey you lay train on that socail female that came over last night?

Lawrence: Train was laid my friend. Tracks and all.

Unacceptable (Female)
Roxy: Hey Lu, you look really beat.

Lu: Oh I know, I met this group of guys at the club last night. They laid train on me and I made them breakfast this morning. You try making 16 omlettes!!

Riding the gravy train

Riding the gravy train is the name of the game. (not to be confused with The Game)
In this context, the game being the life lived by the people in the "industry" with their soulless addiction to pointless materialistic advantages such as money and fame.
So basically if you're "riding the gravy train" you have sold your true self out to the music industry/any other type of corrupt medium for said perks.

Roger Waters in a critical song "Have a cigar" by Pink Floyd :

Come in here dear boy have a cigar you're gonna go far,
You're gonna fly high, you're never gonna die,
You're gonna make it if you try, they're gonna love you.

Well I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincerely,
The band is just fantastic that is really what I think,
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it "Riding the gravy train".
