Never ceases to amaze me when “fans” of a band appear to completely ignore their lyrics. Are these people who only know “Longview” and “Time of your Life?”

I loved when Republicans were screaming at rage against the machine to stop making political music, like... what machine do you think they're raging against? The mcdonalds icecream machines?

I’ve had times in my life where I’m oblivious to lyrics, and times when I’m really tuned in to them. So I can see how people get carried along with the music regardless of the lyrics.

It’s still funny when people make realizations like this though.
