@[r263:25426] Great explanation of this song, their message is pretty clear if one is aware of their political context. One thing I'd suggest is that the meaning behind the phrase "a tooth for an eye" context could be simplified even further. Consider the phrase "a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye" to represent equality and justice; "a tooth for an eye" would then represent injustice and inequality in the world. |

Meu Cu: According to an interview with the band ( http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=YIijJt9aEfU) "meu cu" means literally "my asshole". It is slang for "I don't care" or the more common American slang "whatever". |
