    And I keep hearing the second line as a censored "What the fuck is to our devotion"

    Can't believe the dicks line is so problematic.  I'm making sure I stand back so that I don't get  any spirit coming on me.

    Was my initial thought.  Listening again I kinda hear ignore the first time and endure the second!  

    And yes, the grow dicks line is awful.  But the rest is brilliant.

    Ok, so if we assume "dicks and fix and file things" is correct... what does that even mean? Dicks is obvious, we want to grow our dicks, sure. Fix, we're looking for the next bigger fix, like addicts, ok. File things? We want bigger files? Bigger cabinets? Bigger hard drives? :confused:
    A common frustration women express about men is that men always want to try to "fix" things when sometimes women just want to be heard/listened to.  That's the context I'm deducing for "boys want to... fix... things."
    You’re saying they want to put a little fixxin on it? Yeah? Yeah? ...yeah?

    I think it’s 3 different males stereotypes he talking about. Wanting to grow their dicks, fix things, & blow shit up!!! 😉😂
    Oh no, man hating/stereotyping I thought this was proven not effective.  I have a young son and this drives me crazy. Well I don’t have to like all Ed’s lyrics. 

    Maybe I’m wrong here. Maybe he talking about everyone flaking out. Not men only. 
    Not men only. Everyone over there is seeing. showing how shit is falling apart in the world and the girls (previous line) and boys are just ignoring it all, doing what they do.

    Are we sure it isn't "fire things" ?
    fire things would make more sense 
    Mm. Would be a classic Eddie double - fire rockets but also a dig at Trump. 
    Only if you have the dreaded TDS. I am sure one could find anything in a song to dig Trump. And then throw in Greta somewhere. Or it's just a song. With some lyrics.

    If you expect any PJ song to be "just a song, with some lyrics" that don't mean any particular thing, then I believe you're mistaken.

    Go back to your Whitesnake message board. You got off at the wrong place.

    I'd like it a bit better if it was "afix their dicks and fire things"  as if its a schlong bayonet rifle.

    As a man who was once a young son, I have no problem with it, I don't see it as "man hating" at all. It's a stereotype because it's mostly true. But yeah, he's talking about everyone, not men only.
