Cover art for Verbatim lyrics by Mother Mother

I agree with LoveIsAPlace on the first verse and how it's questioning perceptions of "normal" sexuality. To say a bit more about the shaky verbatim and change in the air, I think this is referring to gender stereotypes. The verbatim is the stereotype, repeated ad nauseum that, for example, anyone in drag is queer. It's shaking now because society is becoming more liberal and all these idiosyncrasies people have are now being accepted for what they are, natural.
