In * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86vNWIz4M4s By Your Side ]], [[spoiler: about a housewife with Stockholm Syndrome who is the victim of domestic violence [I'll always be by your side, I'll wear your black eyes, I'll try not to cry]. What is very disturbing is that many people consider this track a classic love song.]]

In * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxF6U2oNhcA Jesus Loves Me]], [[spoiler: about Christianity and racism in America in the early 20th century. Also, implied incest.]]

In * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51K4cUTuvc0 Werewolf]], [[spoiler: dad rape.]]

A cover of Kevin Lyttle -- Turn Me On. Since this song [[spoiler: has rather dodgy lyrics [But if you think you're gonna get away from me / You better change your mind], it fits in with CocoRosie's discography rather well. It's clear that this cover is not in tribute to the original song at all, and is actually a strong criticism of it. ]]
