Sparteye sez As near as I can tell, you may use any noun and any verb, and as long as you sing them whilst wiggling your eyebrows up and down, you have indeed hit the mark.
In the early 1930's there was a popular song called "Nagasaki" and it included the following lyrics:
Aw, man, how they entertain,
I mean, they hurry a hurricane.
Back in Nagasaki where the fellows chew tobaccky
And the women wicky-wacky-woo!
There is, of course, no dictionary definition of wicky-wacky-woo but, if you wiggle your eyebrows up and down when you sing it, everybody gets the ribald point.

>> wicky-wacky-woo
According to another song, it's always wicky-wacky-woo in Honolulu, too.

In reply to:
The rock-protection cover placed on the front ends of some sports cars is called a bra, I think.
Never having been to the United States and being a non-motorist, I am of course completely unfamiliar with driving conditions there, but are the roads in such bad repair and so bestrewn with rocks that such a device is necessary?

the people who invest in such a thing are more concerned with the tiniest pebbles -- even sand or dirt -- thrown up at high rates of speed to deface their precious (read high-buck) automobile.

The references to jelly rolls would seem to imply a slang term for the male member rather than its counterpart. As far as ribald suggestions, shortenin' bread doesn't seem very impressive. References to self-rising flour would perhaps be appropriate?

shortnin bread is made quickly, in a hot oven and its good (well, when done right--some make better biscuits than other!)
is can be a reference to fast, hot sex. (not to any specific bit of anatomy)
i have no idea if a 'bun in the oven' as a euphemism for being pregnant is related.--but that expression has wider coin.

And remember, with self-rising flour you don't have to worry about yeast infections.

See http://www.bartleby.com/61/86/H0258600.html. BTW, related to brassiere, etymologically, is the Spanish term for jelly-roll brazo de gitano 'gypsy arm (i.e., puffy sleeves)'.
