Appalling. These hair-band kids and their crazy derivative music nowadays! Makes me wanna be sedated.
One short sedation later: Me, listening to the Good Stuff -- that's right, the Golden Oldies!

I met her in a club down in North Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like
Cherry Cola -- C-O-L-A Cola . . . .
Girls will be boys, and boys will be girls
It's a mixed-up, muddled-up, shook-up world
Except for Lola, Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lola . . . .

You go on this team, I go on that team
Divide everything, a flag or a number
Make 'em opposites, so there's a reason
Stigmatization, okay, now we can fight!
Divide everything, just put it all flat
Justification, don't think now, you just fight!
You go on this team, I go on that team
Divide everything, okay, now we can fight!
Defend a fortress, so there's a reason
Justification, okay, now we can fight!
Divide the people, so there's a reason
Stigmatization, okay, now you just fight!
You go on that team, I go on this team

It's a shame Stereolab were such a bourgeois corporatist pro-war running-dog capitalist-lackey groop.
If only they had been a little more . . . how-you-say, d'un groupe bohème!
