I as a teenager, Neil Hannon (The Divine Comedy =) song "intergenerational sex" for the first time I heard, I went because of the sensational title from a slippery content in any form. and actually not even heard correctly. =D
heute ist mir bei der wiederentdeckung des liedes aufgegangen, dass es sich stattdessen um eine sternstunde der poplyrik handelt:

generation sex respects the rights of girls
who want to take their clothes off,
as long as we can all watch that's ok.
and generation sex elects the type of guys
you wouldn't leave your kids with
and shouts "off with their heads" if they get laid.
lovers watch their backs as hacks in macs
take snaps through telephoto lenses,
chase mercedes benzes through the night.
a mourning nation weeps and wails
but keeps the sales of evil tabloids healthy.
the poor protect the wealthy in this world.
generation sex injects the sperm of worms
into the eggs of field mice
so you can look real nice for the boys.
and generation sex is me and you
and we should really all know better
it doesn't really matter what you say.

not only brilliant but also composed 10 years later still valid. and the mere formation of the English plurals of "Mercedes Benz" with honor. months
