Re: What do the lyrics mean?
What makes Underworld's and indeed Beck's use of "nonsense" lyrics acceptable is that it is an intelligent choice on the part of the artist.
You believe Messrs Hyde and Beck could write a "proper" song if they chose to.
But if you tak someone like, say, Oasis, then the nonsense is inadvertent and perfectly good (even great) tunes like "Don't look back in anger" and "Wonderwall" are ruined by lyrics that suggest they all left school at sixteen - haven't read a book since and worst of all, think it doesn't show....
