An absolute banger with perfect lyrics about women taking revenge on men and the world, with a nice reference to Glazer’s Under The Skin too. Songwriting at his best. The misogynist's daughter made him rethink what he said
I know just how this thing ends
She has trouble reconciling Pops with the things that she read
I know just how this thing ends
Hundred billion babies born every millennium
I know just how this thing ends
Man, I hope nobody messes with the wrong rejected men
I know just how this thing ends
Sure your politics are perfect with the gun against your head
I know just how this thing ends
It's a good thing God gave us someone on whom we can depend to clean up
i didn’t quite appreciate this song as much as i do now until seeing it performed as the closer to his live show… such a great encapsulation of the feeling of years of life under very late capitalism weighing on you
how hard can you go,
and for how long can you sustain it?
when the force that fights back
doesn’t ever relax
it’s so relentless,
oh how long can you defend
against a cheat code?
at a furious pace,
with a smile on your face
