What do you think more people should experience as part of their journey of exploring their sexuality that, in your opinion, not enough people have tried?

    Well then here I’ll just call myself a fag and see what happens.

    Oh no! Senpai! I’ve reached over to grab this faggot and , and… its too heavy!

    Can you help me lift it?

    Here lets copy paste some other song lyrics as well:

    Welcome to a new kind of tension

    All across the alien nation

    Where everything isn’t meant to be okay

    Television dreams of tomorrow

    We’re not the ones who’re meant to follow

    For that’s enough to argue

    Well maybe I’m the faggot America

    I’m not a part of a redneck agenda

    Now everybody do the propaganda

    And sing along to the age of paranoia

    I’m still gonna argue that actual lyric is ‘all across the aryan nation’, not ‘alien’, all the lyric sites are wrong lol.

      I’ve never heard this song before, but I listened to that part and I hear “alienation/alien nation” when I listen… but, despite not being a dumb little pun, “aryan nation” fits so much better thematically.

        I am still to this day convinced that is the actual lyric, because I’ve heard it from them live, within a few years of the album coming out…

        …and the FCC, well, they have limits.

        Its astounding to me that they were able to say ‘faggot’, imo, given that you had like uh, the Electric Six being unable to say ‘let’s start a war, start a nuclear war, on the dance floor’, around the same time… tons more examples from the early 2000s of songs being censored for mass broadcast… Eminem: ‘FCC won’t leave me be’…

        There was like a year long period afted 9/11 where just literally every song from Rage Aginst the Machine was banned from being played on the radio.

        Just, all of their songs.

              Super Mash Bros gives Girl Talk a run for his money—“All About the Scrillions” and “Mile(y) High Club” are some of the best mashup albums I’ve ever heard. I don’t think they ever really took off, though!
