yes, it's full of Kaiser Chiefsesque sneering at poor people. Hate that song.

[Any chance of some kind of guide for all the random acronyms littering this thread? For those of us that find his music a bit rubbish and had no idea he had put out so many tracks!]

CFATBDC is commonly referred to as 'Captain Fantastic' - regarded by many as his finest albumen.

IGTWTCITB is 'I guess that's why they call it the blues', off of TLFZ (Too Low For Zero - MrsP's favourite EJ albumen - I'd probably go for MATW - Madman Across The Water).
