Was going to say exactly the same: Springsteen is a great example of this, lots of people like the music but seem never to have really thought about the lyrics of some of his less well known songs, like, hmm, Born in the USA or The Ghost of Tom Joad.

Boy, Ghost of Tom Joad seems hard to misunderstand but... If Rage Against the Machine is singing it (I like their cover version), maybe it's not as conservative as you (generic you) think?

I get movie-like pictures in my head for some songs because of how/when I heard them first (Comfortably Numb/Run Like Hell) so I can see that what you feel when you hear music may not relate well to its actual language and meaning. I just don't assume the way I respond is general (with reason).

I guess they like the killing/wanting to kill part and don't recognize who's doing it and why. I'm sure that will work out well for everyone.

I suspect it’s the “*#%^ you I won’t do whatcha tell me” bit that they like but either way it’s not a good look.

I think lots of people like that part - they just mean very different things when they think about it.
