Well, DubDub, as it turns out, the last verse is indeed a parody. Upon googling I discovered that Irving Berlin wrote it, not Cole Porter. I reproduce it in white to protect those who are prurient-sensitive:
You're the top!
You're Miss Pinkham's tonic.
You're the top!
You're a high colonic.
You're the burning heat of a bridal suite in use
You're the breasts of Venus,
You're King Kong's penis,
You're self-abuse.
You're an arch from the Rome collection.
You're the starch in a groom's erection.
I'm a eunuch who has undergone an 'op',
But if, baby, I'm the bottom
You're the top.
