SKUNK ANANSIE

- Charity Lyrics

WHY DO I SENSE, BENEVOLENCE
YOU STAND TALL AT MY GREAT EXPENSE

THICK WORDS OF GRATITUDE, WHAT A PRICE TO PAY
STUCK IN MY THROAT, I SELL EVERY WORD I SAY

BUT I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
TWISTING ME ROUND
I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
KEEPING ME DOWN.....

YOU PITY ME WITH YOUR TASTELESS GESTURES
GRATITUDE FOR KIND
BUT YOUR BLUDGEONED, INTENTIONED OBJECTIVES
ARE SCREWING WITH MY MIND

BUT I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
TWISTING ME ROUND
I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
KEEPING ME DOWN.....

BUT I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
TWISTING ME ROUND
I DON`T WANT YOUR CHARITY
KEEPING ME DOWN.....

What is the meaning behind Charity lyrics?


When we look deeper into its meaning, the tune 'Charity' performed by Skunk Anansie is about the feeling of being choked by fake kindness and help which are represented as 'charity'. The music says no to that kind of false charity and at the same time, it shows how the person feels down and twisted, thus illustrating the dark side of such superficial generosity on a person’s health and self-esteem. The lyrics of the song do not only rely on the expression of feelings like angst, anger, despair, heartbreak but also on the social commentary. On the other hand, the song accentuates the necessity of the dismissal of pity, the fight for independence and the endurance of emotional suffering. The lyrics bring up the issues of emotional turmoil and dependence which might not be quite appropriate for very young children unless supervised by their parents. But still, the song does not have any bad words, violence, or adult themes that could cause the audience a higher rating.
