Wrestlers Lyrics

Cover art for Wrestlers lyrics by Hot Chip

I believe this is no pro-wrestling fluff, it's more about masculine behavior, how the majority believes they have to sacrifice their brains over big muscles. comforted by the idea that you only find true manhood in a fighting warrior behavior. so this is more a smart and ironic depiction of how men of today are still so easily conditionned to be bellicose and too small-minded... and feed that stupid idea watching 'sport'programs like those, or else. Hot chip in a light way are talking here of how much the kind of society we evolve in is basically a brutal, primary and really agressive one.
