Hahahaha! Wait....... are you serious?
The original plagued my uni life, it was chuffing EVERYWHERE.
Even back then I thought it sounded like a whiny, spoilt american teen being told to clean his room:
"FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!"
"Yes, dear.
At least load the dishwasher by the time your dad & I are back."

That might have been what it sounded like to you.
Because maybe the epitome of your (and your contemporaries) problems was just that; overbearing parents with minor household chores. However it is clearly about institutionalised racial abuse in the culture and government of the US.

Maybe. If you were talking about Nina Simone
NOT a song written by extremely privileged californian teens, endlessly, mindlessly parroted by spotty teens for (what seemed like) the entire 90s.

Also, if I happen to be talking about RATM.
On the basis that that is what they made that song about.

The thing about art is there's the intent of the people who make it and how it sounds to others
In this case it sounds like a bunch of whiny jabronies who wont tidy their room.
