when i listen to this song i feel the connotation that they are saying that this code of law is so old that it's in ruins and relegated to books that people don't even know that much about. like, why are we still living according to values established 6,000 years ago? the b-52's are a pretty socially progressive band so i could see it being a comment on 80s conservatism.
