Not really

Guess he guessed wrong. There's no way this song could be mistaken for the West's latest wave of xenophobia, soul-searching and self-doubts brought on by the EEC's latest huge wave of migrants from former Communist countries (unless you apply the loosest possible interpretation of the last verse). In fact, all in the song's a bit clumsy lyrically. (And, do we need another version of Gloria?)
I suspect that you'll find his stuff about politically dubious, mob-handed ignorant racist homophobes - or Eastern Europeans - will be one of the songs it's impossible to work out what he's singing about. (WTF is with the vocals on this record? Sick Love is Vic Reeves' pub singer doing Bacharach.)
And, before anyone goes off on one, I am liking this record.
