People. This song is completely ironic - the narrator is unreliable. Just listen to the lyrics, Linnell is writing from the perspective of a lazy artist who blames "society" for his lack of relevant output. This is a brilliant takedown of all who (in our generally open society) make excuses and blame others outside of themselves for their slacking.

This is the first time I've ever learned something from YouTube comments; I've always assumed by default that the guys were angry. It's good to consider that maybe they were not being as petty as I thought.
