If you could ask Devo about the lyrical content of any song,
what song would it be?

I'm sure this answer will change for me from time to time,
but right now it's "The Rope Song."

I don't think I'd ask. Their lyrics aren't exactly brain surgery to
figure out.

How did I know you'd say something like that?

Figuring out lyrics is one thing... finding out what
inspired said lyrics is another.

They've done plenty of interviews.

inspiration for it isn't moreless obvious.

Now as for music instead of lyrics, I'll be first in line anytime
for a new Devo jam session. Just brilliant lines.
