Born Ruffians’ “Foxes Mate for Life”

Musically, this song’s a bit too eclectic unconventional I-can’t-think-of-a-good-word-for-what-I’m-thinking to make it onto my favorites list, but the lyrics and the message rock. The theme of unconditional love, mixed in with just the right amount of countercultural subversion, plus a bit of affirmative optimism… Mm, yummy!

Make a point of having fun
It’ll help you get through life
“Life sucks and love is dumb”
Golly, that’s a real lie!

And I know, foxes mate for life
Because they’re in love

Learn as much as you can
Read a book, watch less TV
It’s worth it in the end
Just take a look at me

And I know, foxes mate for life
Because they’re in love

Someone should terminate him
Before he infects the others
Don’t let children have ideas
They might want a real life

And I know, foxes mate for life
Because they’re in love
