Civilised Lyrics
I don’t understand.
No I don’t understand.
(Excuse me.)
Why everything’s so lame,
Why everyone’s so wasted.
Why everything’s so tame,
Why everyone’s so sordid.
It’s got to be your civilised societies.
(You’ve got nothing for me.)
No cheating?
No lies?
It’s got to be.
No I don’t understand.
(Excuse me.)
Why everything’s so lame,
Why everyone’s so wasted.
Why everything’s so tame,
Why everyone’s so sordid.
(You’ve got nothing for me.)
No lies?
It’s got to be.

How can we call the socitey we live in "civilsed" when so many terrible things happen every day?
If you look at the lyrics of soem of the other songs off of this album "www.pitchshifter.com", then come back and look at this, you'll see most of this song is out of sarcasm. I doubt the writer would ever agree that this society is civilised.
I meant my comment to be the meaning of the song not an attack on the song. Sorry if you didn't understand
