Tra la la tra la tra-ah
In your snatch fitzpleasure
Broom-shaped pleasure
Deep greedy and googling every corner
La tra la tra-ah la
La la la la la la la
Dead in the middle
Of the C-O double M-O-N
Little did I know then
That the Mandela Boys soon become Mandela Men
Tall woman
Pull the pylons down
And wrap them around the necks
Of all the feckless men that queue to be the next
Steepled fingers
Ring la la la la la la la la leaders
Queue jumpers
Rock fist paper scissors, la la la la la la lingered fluffers (the choir)
In your hoof lies the heartland
Where we tent for our treasure, pleasure, leisure
Les yeux, it's all in your eyes
In your snatch fitzpleasure
A broom-shaped pleasure
Deep greedy and googling every corner
Tra la la tra la tra-ah la
La la la la la la la
Oh
Blended by the lights

I think what's more, is we probably aught to look at life as always having these dark and shameful aspects of it. That if we're going to grow as people, we have to accept there is ugly too. just a little thought that comes from listening to this.

[@briancoffey8070]

All about context. As you say, there is a purpose to the lyrics being what they are. If a situation is horrible to you, then use it to teach yourself and those who follow you what NOT to do and be, and in that way, make the tragic and the terrible serve a better purpose.

Ok but, this song is actually devastating. I feel like the sound of it goes so perfectly with the lyrics. The sound of the base actually make me feel sick and even sacred (like when I hear it I hear actual evil) Like my flight or fight senses instantly get heightened. It’s insane how affective this song is in actually scarring me. I’m actually impressed, these guys are amazing at conveying the emotion and grit of tralalas terrible fate.

[@MrBladezt]

Only discovering alt-J now, and loving it!

[@FreedomExperiment]

I may never think the same way about music or broom shaped snatches again! Amazingly fresh track.

[@RavensShadowSpectre]

This song was inspired by a chapter from Hubert Selby, Jr.'s 1964 controversial novel about the brutality of urban life, Last Exit to Brooklyn. Lyrical allusions include "Tralala," (the title character of a prostitute character in the book) and "broom-shaped pleasure," (the chapter ends with a particularly gruesome gang rape of Tralala involving a broom). The song title does not feature in the lyrics. Speaking with Secret Sound Shop, frontman Joe Newman explained: "Basically the phrase is 'in your snatch fits pleasure, broom shaped pleasure,'" he said, "so fits and pleasure and Fitz like a second name, like Fitzpatrick so we thought Fitzpleasure, so more subtle." Newman explained to Secret Sound Shop why he chose such a shocking subject matter for the song: "I always believe that you write about what moves you," he said, "and although that gang-rape scene is horrible... it really moved me, it's really well written, you don't really know which way is up after that chapter. I thought it was a really powerful thing to write about." Another link between Last Exit to Brooklyn and rock music is that The Smiths titled their 1986 album, The Queen Is Dead, after a different chapter in the novel. Mentioned both in this song ("Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N" ) and "Bloodflood," The Common is a park in Southampton, the South England city where Newman grew up. The lyric, "Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N" was inspired by a line from Puerto-Rican/American rapper Big Punisher's 1998 track "Twinz," which goes: "Dead in the middle of Little Italy. Little did we know that we riddle some middlemen who didn't do diddle." Newman explained to NME: "There's a gang in Southampton called The Mandela Boys. We were scared s---less of them when we were kids. The (next) line, 'Little did I know then that the Mandela Boys soon become Mandela Men' is me wondering whether they're still in the gang or if they've just all got jobs and kids now." The song has been used in several TV series, including Weeds, Suits and Homeland.

[@julianjaimes197]

RavensShadowSpectre Funny how few people have read the book, she isn't gang raped. She litterally yells and screams at the mob of men to join in and fuck her, I'm serious. It's more suicide than anything tbh, they just continued after she past out which is what killed her.

[@siddharthamukherjee300]

all alt j videos are special cinematic experiences

[@jameswesthoff6994]

I saw a concert of them in Milwaukee at the FM 102.1 Big Snow Show 8, along with Grouplove, Bastille, and Pheonix. AMAZING. Got a T-Shirt there too.

[@al.kemner]

This is copied from an interview with Alt-J: "...What is Fitzpleasure? Fitzpleasure? Erm It’s not rude is it? It is rude, well it’s not rude, it’s graphic and it’s violent. It’s based on a book by Hubert Selby Jr [Last Exit to Brooklyn]. Each chapter is about a different character and they all intertwine throughout the book. There’s a woman called Tralala so that’s why we sing [sings] Tra-la-la-la there’s a character called Tralala and it’s just about her. So basically the phrase is ‘in your snatch fits pleasure, broom shaped pleasure’ so fits and pleasure and Fitz like a second name, like Fitzpatrick so we thought Fitzpleasure, so more subtle. But it’s about the end of the chapter where she gets, er, gang-raped, so it’s really horrible. Who read the book? I did. I always believe that you write about what moves you and although that gang-rape scene is horrible… it really moved me, it’s really well written, you don’t really know which way is up after that chapter. I thought it was a really powerful thing to write about. We like your shoes, where are they from? They’re Doc Martins..."

[@meebo965]

"We like your shoes."

[@joaoalmeida1876]

Who actually reads all of this?

[@AJ-dw9or]

“Erm..”

[@sonjaluonga]

[@eliskabencova9888]

thank you. it inspired me to read the book and the mentioned scene with gang rape was truly horrible but really moving, i love this song even more since reading it. they really captured the mood - as always.

[@illumiNaughty-hr5jv]

I had such a deep profound understanding while listening to Alt-J on lsd. I had some really potent shit and rolled all day, watching alt-j and modest mouse music videos. It really blew me away, talk about real fucking magic. Ever since then I have been obsessed with this band. I can't get enough. It brings something out of me lol

[@illumiNaughty-hr5jv]

Do it. You will not fucking regret it lol

[@Samah_Morph_exe]
