Hey Occam's Harmony, is this song not about BNL's hatred of American foreign policy and the Bush administration? That's how I understand it. The bank is metaphorical Iraq and the "robbers" are the American military who went in to take over but "screwed it up" and now they are on the run. America should be kicked back and relaxed with all the oil money but we got freaked out by the metaphorical "nuns" (bombs) and are now trying to pull out. Isn't this song about that? |

I am really sick of people reading the whole political thing into every single one of BNL's songs. So they spoke out against Iraq a little bit...does that mean that we have to retroactively interpret EVERY song they wrote through that lens? Give me one break. |
