Mandingo Cliche Songtext
von Belle and Sebastian
Mandingo Cliche Songtext
It was confessional yet dishonest.
Jane pretends to be horrifies by the
Sexuality that she in fact fetishizes.
She subsumes herself to the myth of black male sexual potency,
But then doesn′t follow through.
She thinks she respects
Afro-Americans and thinks they're cool and exotic,
With a notch heatening in her belt. But of course, it all comes down to Mandingo Cliche.
And, he calls her on it.
In classic racist tradition, she demonizes and runs for cover.
But then, how could she behave otherwise?
She′s just a spoiled suburban white girl
With a Bennetton rainbow complex.
It's just my opinion, what do I know
