No, it is "hungry necks that I know." Ben is from Mount Pleasant, SC- where there's a Hungryneck Blvd. I'd imagine it's what he's referencing here, especially given the context of the song, unless it's some kind of miraculous coincidence. |

It is "hungry necks that I know". Ben is from Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. One of the roads there is named Hungry Neck Boulevard. Google it. I presume that's what he's referencing there, but I suppose it could also have a double meaning. |

"Don't question me."
Um, ok- no. Do you care to explain to us why this song in particular is mocking Christianity other than the fact that it mentions Jesus and the word "Christianity?"
This song is written in rebuttal to the Pitchfork review of himself. In my opinion, the reason he references Jesus and Christianity is because there's a preception (and rightfully so) that music inspired by Christian faith is often times unoriginal. I assume Pitchfork accused him of this in their review, so to me it's almost like he's mocking their accusation. |

This is just me, but I've always assumed "You love your skin-drop the 'K'" would infer that you love your sin, since "sin" is "skin" w/o the k... maybe it's just me... |
