So I like Blur for a long time now but as a teenager my English knowledge was very basic. Looking at some lyrics again with my current level of English (and blackpilled) revealed just how much blackpilled Blur was. Some examples:
The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother?
Should have stayed away
Another night
And I thought "Well, well"
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf
The death of the teenager
Standing on his own
Why did he bother?
Should have slept alone
This song is clearly about the struggle of an average to below-average looking young man having to go to parties and approach, only to get harshly rejected to oblivion and return home lonely, sex-starved and emotionally crushed.
This one is less obvious despite the title kek, but bear with me:
PRIMAL, EVIL WHAT AM I ?
TONGUE-TIED UNTI THE DAY I DIE (mentalceldom)
THERE'S NO LOVE MADE WITH MERMAIDS
IT'S JUST DISTRACTION OR SO THEY SAY (normies trying to bluepill you about sex not being that important)
BUT I'M TOO TIRED TO CARE ABOUT IT
CAN'T YOU SEE IT IN MY FACE, MY FACE (subtle lookism reference)
WHEN I FEEL THIS STRANGE CAN I GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN
IT'S A SORRY STATE YOU'RE GETTTING IN
THE SAME EXCUSE IS WEARING THIN
THERE'S NO SELF CONTROL LEFT IN ME (about to go ER)
WHAT WAS NOT WILL NEVER BE (it was over from the start)
(Tracy Jacks) works in civil service
(Tracy Jacks) it's steady employment (being a hard-working upstanding member of society means SHIT in a post-female liberation society)
(Tracy Jacks) is a golfing fanatic
(Tracy Jacks) but his put is erratic
(Tracy Jacks) saw a Harley Street doctor
(Tracy Jacks) who prescribed healthy living
(Tracy Jacks) but he's getting past forty (age pill)
(Tracy Jacks) and all the seams are splitting
Everyday he got closer
He knew in his heart he was over
I'd love to stay here and be normal (incapable of keep being a normie in face of his newly-acquired blackpill about age)
But it's just so overrated
(Tracy Jacks) left home without warning
(Tracy Jacks) at five in the morning
(Tracy Jacks) got on the first train to walton
(Tracy Jacks) and stood on the seafront
(Tracy Jacks) threw his clothes in the water
(Tracy Jacks) and ran around naked
(Tracy Jacks) got stopped by the police
(Tracy Jacks) and escorted back home
This is clearly a song about the age pill. It's over for him because he's 40+, so he basically couldn't deal with it and stopped being a normie and got crazy.
One more:
They stumbled into their lives
In a vague way became man and wife (settling)
One got the other they deserved one another (looksmatch)
They settled in a brand new town
With people from the same background
Kept themselves busy
Long hours left them dizzy
Now when he's in, she's out (marriage inevitably failing in modern society)
All you ever do is fade away (pointlessness of marrying in modern society)
All you ever do is fade away
They are not making plans
Because now they understand
All you ever do is fade away
He noticed he had visible lines (looks further deteriorating with age)
She worried about her behind
Their birth had been the death of them (it was over from the start)
It didn't really bother them
Now when she's in, he's out
The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother?
Should have stayed away
Another night
And I thought "Well, well"
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf
The death of the teenager
Standing on his own
Why did he bother?
Should have slept alone
