When this lead singer from a famous band was asked
about a lyric in their song which was factually incorrect
his response was this-
“Thanks for the tutorial and, no, you're not the first to
bring this to my attention — and you're not the first to
completely misinterpret the lyric and miss the metaphor.
Believe me, I've consumed enough alcoholic beverages in
my time to know how they are made and what the proper
nomenclature is. But that line in the song has little or
nothing to do with alcoholic beverages. It's a socio-
political statement. My only regret would be having to
explain it in detail to you, which would defeat the
purpose of using literary devices in song writing and
lower the discussion to some silly and irrelevant
argument about chemical processes”
