...about that, and I don't think this band calls for that at all." Instead, Moreno's lyrics come at the listener at odd angles, suggesting emotions rather than announcing them, conjuring strong images without explaining their meanings.

Think of Bush trying to remain good-humored while dealing at a press conference with a trick question that is obviously designed to see if he knows the difference between Austria and Australia. In either situation, it would be perfectly natural for the heir in question to think to himself, "How come...
