| Good Shoes – Morden Lyrics

Does 'songmeanings.net' mean nothing to you people? It doesnt matter whether you like the arctic monkeys or good shoes or whether you think this style of music has been done before. This song's blatently obvious MEANING (which the website's name calls for) is about the good shoes' opinion of their hometown 'Morden'. They think it's a shithole. I hate you people who just bitch about eachother on this website without offering any insight into a song's meaning, you should all be banned. |

thanks pantomimehorse for setting prpadilla straight (no pun intended). Just to add, the lines:
'There is a wall that runs right through me
Just like the city, I will never be joined'
refers to the fact that the berlin wall was built through kreuzberg, of which some remains. It perfectly split kreuzberg between the nice part and the skank part. Kele draws direct comparison towards this split province and the confusion in his mind. |

It's "pork in your brain like im raping your ear". It makes alot more sense. Its a double entendre relating thinking about pork to being nobbed in the ear. Pork in your brain satisfies both eventualities. |

Not one of you has mentioned the fact that Kele came out before the release of the album. The song is either about the time that he realised he was gay or his first homosexual 'encounter'. So whichever one it was, it was when he was in the province of Kreuzberg. The first paragraph consists of 3 questions, this symbolises his confusion over love and his own sexuality. The corus is self explanitory, 'I have decided, At twenty-five, Something must change'. This change is him realising that he is gay. 'After sex, The bitter taste, Been fooled again, The search continues' is saying that he had his first homosexual encounter thinking that this was what love was, but then realising that finding the person he is meant to spend the rest of his life with will take time, 'The search continues'. |

Most of you are idiots. 'tell me a joke' has pretty much got it but not quite. It is about how easily people can be swayed by the media when it comes to muslims and terrorism. In this song Kele is taking the role of an average regularyly non-racist bloke, 'I was an ordinary man with ordinary desires' but as a result of 9/11 and the london bombings he has become racist towards all muslim people becausepapers like the daily mail and the newscasters on tv have pretty much blamed them for the attacks. 'In the 90s' he was 'optimistic as a teen' but now that terrorism has become a much bigger threat since 9/11 he needs somebody to blame.The newscaster and the daily mail told him to blame the muslim people as a whole. He shows this in the line 'Now is not the time for liberal thought'. The witch hunt of which he speaks is him going after the muslim immigrants who are responsible for terrorism and 'Taking our women, and taking our jobs'. The lyrics are quite profound, bloc party's best to date in my mind. |

No question the greatest song of all time from the greatest album of all time from the greatest band of all time. Debating over what the song means is of no use. The lyrics mean nothing, yet everything. The alpha and the omega. The song is so perfect that the lyrics don't need a description. Beautiful. |
