Certainly, and perhaps that goes along with "When you want your pecker spoilt / That's where you get it done."

On the other hand, that phrasing, "When you want ...," suggests something other than disease as the meaning of "your pecker spoilt." I take the meaning to be overindulged, as with a spoiled child.

That's one of the reasons that I prefer to see "ruin" as financial and character loss in the "boy" versions. In the "girl" versions, I think it is just being a whore.
