I, of all people, can sympathize.
As an American, there have been a lot of things that have come out of England that utterly mystified me. A lot of Jethro Tull's music, for instance- there are a lot of Britishisms in it that made some songs utterly incomprehensible.

Since I've been here on b3ta, the song "Aqualung" has started to make sense, as have other lesser known songs such as "Up The 'Pool". Until my immersion here, it was like trying to read "A Clockwork Orange" without the dictionary in the back.

Were it not for Google I would have long ago despaired of ever understanding this site.
