Mandingo Cliche - Belle and Sebastian
It was confessional, yet dishonest.
Jane pretends to be horrified
by the sexuality that she in fact fetishizes.
She subsumes herself
to the myth of black male potency,
but then doesn't follow through.
She thinks she 'respects Afro-Americans,
she thinks they're 'cool, and exotic,
what a notch he'd make in her belt,
but, of course,
it all comes down to the mandingo cliche,
and he calls her on it.
In classic racist tradition she demonizes,
then runs for cover. But then,
how could she behave otherwise?
She's just a spoiled suburban
white girl with a Benneton rainbow complex.
It's just my opinion, and what do I know?
