| I read somewhere that Björn wrote this song to someone he had a big fight with, some left-political guy. So he wrote it to show that he is the best. | |

| Well, if you want to tell somebody you do not care about him, you are better, the other one means nothing to you, if you want to tell somebody to shut up because of all the stupid crap he's telling - then, I guess, you write a song like this. | |

| does the band have problems with leftists? Did they actually ever state something political in their interviews? this reminds me on one of the new songs, "god knows", the lyrics are like "I turned left like she told me to ... I turned right like I said I would" kind of strange | |
