M.I.A. – XR2 Lyrics 17 years ago
The song is a mixture of her experience partying in the rave scene in London and references to pop culture happening at that time.

*92 = was one of the better years for the England rave scene
*Took a pill, good time, all the time = self explainatory
*labyrinth, world dance = specific dance events/clubs in london at the time
*E's, Lucozade = ecstasy + energy sport drink
*DJ's, MC's, private raves = self explainatory
*Keep it secret, light it, mate. = as in underground raves + spark up the weed
*Whistle, whistle
Blow, blow = raver blowing a whistle

chowfun18 did a nice job of covering the pop culture references
