Soma, stop antagonizing people.
Stip, move on and stop listening to an album you didn't like.
Harmless, stop engaging Stip.

This is almost as bad as the "Is Ed an atheist?" thread.
If I want to hear meaning through words I'll go read a book. Music is about the fucking music.

harmless wrote:"Normalisation" of negative stereotypes is a pretty big subject for you, stip. There is humour and simplification in this song, but that's because it's, to all intents and purposes, a pop song.
"Take their tea at two, all the normal people, they do
They burned the jungle down, while you were sleeping it grew
You dream in English now, in proper English
Look how you're just the same as me
It's through!"
This verse references a jungle and "proper English". Might it not be about white imperialism?
I don't know if I'd go so far as to call that humor but the lyric about the jungle is certainly the best lyric in either song. You might be right. Maybe that will help redeem the song a little bit the next time I hear it. But again I think this is really the sentiment improving, not the lyrics

I need to finish my third listen. Then I'm done, unless I'm inspired to go for a 4th
I may go back and revisit the first three albums to see if they're more striking this time.
