V. and see Coca-Cola, and you know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All Cokes are the same and all Cokes are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows it, the bum knows it, and you know it."the line 'madonna's fucking on the car again' refers to a video-clip of madonna. BALLAD OF THE BANGKOK NOVOTEL is about nicky wire's stay in a novotel in bangkok. he could not get outside because of the heat and he was afraid the police would arrest him because of the msp's anti-establishment lyrics. so the only thing he could do was watch television (and so also madonna's videoclips).
