| Electric Six – I Belong in a Factory Lyrics

I think it's about expressing the frustrations and woes of one's lovelife into hard labor, in this case leading to a lifetime of workaholism. the third verse is about an experiment with mixing his love and work lives with work being a higher priority. I think it's actually a pretty sad song when you listen to the lyrics structure, but it's probably my favorite by the band. |

I think this song is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the frustrations of Christianity. They've been waiting for Christ's return since the time of his existence as promised in the testaments, all the while feeling that One encounter with the son of God was not enough. In anticipation of his return, the followers went on a quest to spread the word and fight their perception of evil (Think of the way Christianity influenced earlier science, leadership, and Europe in general for arguably the worse). "People will be pushed to the back of the bus" is a pun on how Christian influence spreads like getting shoved to the back of a bus carrying everyone in the same direction and all expecting the same destination. And the ones who speak up or ask hard questions are considered complicated people who don't do what you tell them to. |
