no, make that several things:
1. the song is beautiful.
2. the lyrics are really kind of intense, if you actually listen to them: "there is no prestige in your title, we are after your head / your new world is on fire and soon you'll be too", etc.
3. the singer has an adorable speech impediment. and a darling swedish accent too. (maybe the speech impediment has something to do with being swedish, and english being his second, third, or maybe fourth language) but there's something disarmingly charming about hearing "sabotage will set us fwee / thow a rack in the machine." yes.
*and yes, i know, refused is fucking dead and everything, and nobody's supposed to write about them anymore, but i've been listening to them lately and i like them. that is all.

it's not a speech impediment... i saw them live and he clearly said "free." of course, he could have changed that after the recording of the song. also, the second part of your quote is about throwing a "rock," not a "rack," in the machine.
i know that the word is rock. it just sounds like rack. and fwee.
but, dude, you got to see them? that is rad!
