Have you ever really listened to this song? Jesus, it's creepy - and dumb. The fool's leaving his wife (you only "leave" your wife, you "break-up" with your girlfriend) because he's "easy"? I ask you:
Is this entire tune some asshole using a euphemism for getting a little on the side?
What really killed me was this line:
"I wanna be high, so high - I wanna be free to know the things I do are right,…"
Well, shit, leaving those you're intimate with will accomplish that, won't it, you selfish douchebag? No chance of being judged as despicable then, is it? No, dick-for-brains, you're freeeeee!
And all this is laid over a breezy arrangement to make it sound reasonable - even attractive. Thanks, Lionel, you faggot-assed-faggot. Which, somehow, brings me to another disturbing thought:
Boomers, turning this country over to a(nother) cult as they leave the stage, was as inevitable as we were told Romney's nomination was.
